There's an ability to create a code of conduct under a regulation. Its approach would be to ensure that conduct is being dealt with at the appropriate level, but it won't say that in the code of conduct. It's going to set out the standards of behaviour. We would propose and in consultations with the stakeholders that.... Right now I'm going to estimate it is 30 or 40 sections long. It's very legalistic. It's in a regulation. We would still have the measures in a CSO. We're going to have a code of conduct in regulation but it's going to look more like a code of ethics. It is a modernization move. Rather than saying “though shalt not” with a series of things you can't do, it's going to say that members will conduct themselves properly, that they will treat people with respect, that they will treat everyone equally.
