But I'm just saying that it wasn't beyond the imagination of government to devise a.... I mean, you have to think through a mechanism. There's no legislation providing for the counsellor, and you're simply providing a mechanism.
I agree with Ms. Nölke's conclusion that a process would have to be created.
I think, Mr. Manuge, you referred to this in your comments, that there has to be some kind of a process created that would allow the minister to make a determination as to whether or not guidelines have been followed.
Persuade me, I guess, that somehow this is outside the jurisdiction of the minister's authority. If the minister is granted this authority by the bill, the minister is required to make a determination. The minister then has to create a process that allows that determination to be made and the process has to be seen to be fair. That's completely understood.
It will also require staff to advise the minister. Obviously the minister isn't going to make up the decision on the basis of what he or she reads in the newspaper.
My question is what's wrong with that? Why would you think that wouldn't be anticipated by virtue of the proposal?
Of course it's anticipated that this is work that will have to be done. Whether it's additional or not is up to the minister to decide how resources are allocated. But I don't think it's incompatible with the mandate of the minister.
