-----in this section 29 is that we seem to be cementing into the Bill a distinction that I am very unhappy with, that is, the expressions of interest procedure that goes to this commission and the other mode of appointment under section 29. Does paragraph (b) of section 29 also contain an obligation to keep a record of deliberations, because paragraph (a) does under the section 39 procedure? It does not seem to me necessarily to be the case under section 44(1).

I know it may be difficult to answer but will the Minister indicate what are the particulars referred to in paragraph (b) as being particulars referred to in section 44?
