In terms of norms, I tend to come down on the negative side. Making sure the norms don't come solely from the private sector and industry is paramount, but that's increasingly what we are seeing. It's called self-regulation. I'm not saying all the answers have to come from government—that would involve identifying the problem, first and foremost, which is no small feat—but government does need to take back control of the conversation around norms. It must ensure that businesses, professional bodies and civil society groups contribute to the conversation. I think government needs to assume control of the debate, which is why I'm so glad to be participating in this kind of forum.
