In terms of how busy, again, I just go back to the duties and functions. Again, clauses 13 to 20 of the proposed intelligence commissioner act go through all the decisions on reasonableness that the commissioner will be expected to make throughout the year. It's not at all clear that this would necessarily mean every day or every week or so on. A lot of these authorizations are done more on an annual basis and so on. In terms of the querying of datasets, the frequency that the commissioner would need to be, perhaps, ready to go in terms of making quick decisions.... It's not clear at all that this would be that often either. I think the main point is that 24 hours would be really tight for any position like this to consider all the angles in order to make a good decision on the minister's decision.
