Having been on the receiving end of complaints that are made against the Commonwealth when action is not taken appropriately, in accordance with those legislative requirements, one of the unfortunate jobs that Attorneys-General have is to mop up mistakes that are made when people do not fit an act within the requirements of legislation. We have spent plenty of time doing that for decisions taken by those opposite and we do not intend to do that again.
