I have some sympathy for the points expressed by Senator Tuffy, in particular that the people are sovereign. I have expressed this viewpoint at my own party meetings, though it is a minority view rather than a majority one. The people decide. If in their wisdom, they decide that a person is suitable to be a member of several bodies, that is their prerogative. If they decide their representatives are unsatisfactory, then it is their prerogative at the next election to remove them. We tread in dangerous waters if this sovereign right of the people is removed.
