I will not belabour the point as I have listened to the Minister. The person making the assessment is gleaning information from the applicant or from his or her advocate. One can imagine a situation whereby an applicant would be nervous before the assessment and forgets some piece of information needed by the assessor in order to make an absolute assessment. On realising that something has been omitted the applicant may wish to revisit the assessment but there is no scope for it to be altered in any way.
