It is becoming quite apparent that the minister does not know what it is that he is amending, that he is simply dodging the question. If he does not know, he has advisers up in his box—could he please send one of them to find out what section 169 says. You are the minister; you are in government; you are supposed to know. If you do not know the answer, please just rise and say, ‘I do not know,’ and send someone out to get it and then you can tell us when they come back.
