The general idea here is that if you give an office a greater budget or more power or greater authority, it tends to grow and expand over time. But generally, there's a principle of providing commensurate accountability with the increase in power. I'm talking about at a high level, the principle of to whom much is given, much is required. So if we give them more power, is there not an additional check, apart from providing a right to seek review in the Federal Court, that should be put in place?
