I guarantee that we will work
closely with the industry, which is why we made the announcement prior to going
through cabinet. Given that a lot of the legislation comes from that piece of
legislation that the former minister put through in 2018, I expect some of the
amendments should be relatively minor. My hope is that we can get that done,
but I will not guarantee it.
