The minister delegates to senior officials the thinking and the prep work. The minister regularly has what we call calibration meetings with her delegated decision-makers. She also has an associate minister who does a lot of this work for her and who also is part of those calibration meetings.
The key here is that the minister very rarely intervenes in cases. If she does, she always gives good reasons for it. I don't believe there's any abuse of that process. It's a very thorough process. It's managed by very senior officials such as myself and my colleagues. It's just part of our legislation that we work with.
