I get the impression that it's sometimes a struggle to draw the line between lobbying and the sharing of interests. For example, I'm thinking of situations where a person suggests to a company that it should move toward a particular industry. If it turns out that the person giving their opinion has shares or investments in that industry, they're influencing a decision in a way that suits them.
Lobbying is often described as something a bit shady. That said, it's understood that we need to hear from people who represent industries.
As members of Parliament, we don't know everything about everything. It's important to have people come talk to us about the challenges in a given industry and how we can help that industry. It helps us make informed decisions. That, I think, is fine.
However, as soon as major decisions in the country align with specific interests and someone is playing both sides, that would potentially be a problem, in your opinion.
Have I understood you correctly?
