I again thank the Minister for his comprehensive reply. I want to get his thoughts on the ratification of the optional protocol. When the UNCRPD was ratified some years ago, this was omitted, which I think was a big mistake. Many groups, including those advocating for people with a disability, have said its omission by the Government was a big mistake. Does the Minister have plans to ratify the optional protocol during his tenure?
