I would probably start with what the act says, and that's very much what I did in looking at the exceptions. The act is pretty clear that while the commissioner can grant an exception, it needs to be done in accordance with what Parliament intended.
Some of the reasons given in the act are whether a person was acting, for example, for a short period of time, or whether they were doing student or administrative work. Others are whether the new employer would benefit from the experience or knowledge that they gained. Those are some of the reasons that are currently in the act, which I will be looking quite seriously at in a report coming forward.
