We have no quibbles that additional regulatory powers over private aerodromes may be needed. Certainly we consulted with the department on that. There were concerns about some private aerodromes that were under development. We had discussions with the government on that. Certainly there are safety and security considerations. We don't question the intent of the language; we just think the language is perhaps a little too broad as it's currently crafted.
