I'd like to do a slight explanation of clause 22.

The clause enables the review bodies to share information with the committee, subject to limitations under what were clauses 14 and 16. The provision is necessary, because the review bodies are otherwise subject to legal prohibitions under their legislation that does not allow them to disclose the information that they have access to.

This particular clause allows them to provide information to the committee, pursuant to anything else that's in the act.

See context to find out what was said next.
