-----but the first question I have for the Minister of State is on the basis of the statement she just made with regard to taking a different approach than relying on internal advice when we are looking at new functions for the IAA or, indeed, introducing new regulations for the IAA. The three amendments most of us are seeking to insert in the legislation relate to new regulations pertaining to peer support programmes, the licenceholders' forum and the licenceholders' charter. Will the Minister of State explain why a different approach was used for the drafting and insertion of amendments for new regulations for search and rescue? We relied solely on internal advice and did not take the different approach that the Minister of State spoke about with regard to the new regulations on peer support, licenceholders' forum and licenceholders' charter.
