May I clarify? You didn't quite put it the way it's done.
For instance, let's say we're talking about a piece of legislation. If there's an issue going on, I may become engaged; I may even on my own initiative bring forward an issue on such things. But once it has progressed to the posting of a proposal on the environmental registry, and especially a proposal pursuant to a law, I cease comment until after it has gone through the entire consultation process and the legislature and is passed. It's only afterwards that I review it.
