It does. I must say it also lacks the comma and the word “to”, which is what I think Senator Norris was going to say. Again, it is illustrative of the difficulties generally with the Bill that it is not, in fact, clarifying or more transparent. Instead, it is creating this unwieldy set of processes that are hard to follow. It is hard to follow the consistency or coherence of the processes.

Senator McDowell is right that if it is being read from the perspective of somebody who is perhaps seeking to apply, or somebody who is seeking to understand the procedures from the outside, it makes for difficult reading currently.
