How can we be assured of that, given the statements he made to workers who were members of the CFMEU mining division? He got them mixed up with, I assume, workers in the construction division, so he has got a bias against certain workers in certain industries. You're saying that he would, when exercising his discretion, not exercise it in a biased way. Wouldn't that then mean that there should be regulations applying to it and the exercise of discretion should be removed from a who that has shown such bias?
