The section 7 I believe is the interpretation clause which helps us within the legislation to interpret the other clauses. Anyway, we could have this discussion.
The other example that the Member mentioned, it is true. I just want to make sure that I put it on record and that I just want to express to the Members
again, which is what we spoke about yesterday, yes, I would like to work with the committee. I am committed to work with the committee. We need to find a common ground. We have to work it on the basis of mutual respect and understanding. I need the committee to know that we are approaching this in a very proactive, positive way.
When the committee suggests that a legislation should be amended to get to the result that they would like, I need the committee to entertain possible options of other options as well. Amendment and legislation and law making is just one option. It’s a very blunt tool and there are other things that we should be able to consider. I just wanted to confirm again.
The strategic plan, yes, we hope to get that done within the life of this Assembly and we will work with the committee to get that done.
