I'm not going to make any comment about public servants. I haven't thought about it carefully, and I don't wish to comment on it.
In terms of differences in standards, let's say, or in guidelines for ministers and parliamentary secretaries, etc., as compared to MPs, I have no problem with the fact that there are differences. I think the responsibilities of these people are different. The occasions on which conflict of interest might arise are very different, and I have no conceptual problem with that distinction.
I think there is likely to be in the future--although I may be wrong--pressure to eliminate the distinction, simply because people find it easier to keep one thing in mind rather than two. And you can sort of understand that, but I have no difficulty with the distinction currently made.
