Thanks, Chair.
I have a question for the officials.
You were saying you can reapply at 12 months. My deep concern with that is the significant backlog in our justice system. If you can't get in, if there's a backlog and the period of 12 months lapses, you are in an extremely vulnerable position. What is in this legislation, or what is in the justice system as a safeguard, to ensure that this time doesn't lapse? If you're put in a queue—and we know there are people who have cases that sit for years and years—that would be a very big concern to me based on how backlogged our justice system is.
What is your response to that?
