I alluded to the issue of transfers or decals on Second Stage. Will the Minister consider magnetic signage? Many other self-employed people who use their vehicles for work employ such signage so that when the vehicle is parked at home, for example, they can remove the signage and ensure it is safe. I am informed that the implementation of the regulation is an issue. Ostensibly, there are people who work from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. regulating and policing an industry where work is done 24 hours per day. Many of the issues brought to my attention arise late at night, so how will the section deal with them in particular?
