Are there specific countries or agencies that this is intended to relate to or is it for everyone? Is this the sort of power that you could imagine being used in APEC, for example? I know that legislation in New South Wales has gone through which gives New Zealand Police the authority to operate as Australian police for the purposes of APEC. Is that part of what this is focusing on? I am sure it is broader than just APEC, but my question is whether it relates to APEC.
