In referring to access to information and the draft, this wasn't in the recommendations, but it's an issue that has been raised in almost every one of our sessions. It's an issue that as a member of Parliament I have a grave concern about. It's this whole business of amber-lighting and whether we should have something in our draft that recommends that this process of amber-lighting for a member of Parliament's access to information requests are not acceptable and something that should not take place. I know it's not a written policy, but it's a policy that a number of people said has evolved and exists. It's something I think colleagues should be quite concerned about.
