As for carrying out such other activities, what other activities? How many types of other activities? As these activities are "in respect of such other matters", Members are now going into deep fog. How many other matters? Members should wait, however, because this is where they get anchored in as it continues "as the Minister by order specifies". Wow. That is for the A class. It then goes on to state the commission shall provide the forum with such administrative services and so on. It struck me that last year, the Government decided it would abolish the Seanad. While "Senate" comes from the Latin, Members are now getting a new Latin word, namely, a forum.
