Instructions are not normally given by way of statutory order. Any instructions issued will, of course, be public documents. It is intended that most of the instructions will be in the guidelines to be issued under section 32 of the Bill. These guidelines will also be available publicly. However laudable Senator Bannon's case, his amendment is unnecessary and what he proposes would deviate from long established practice.
