Has this matter been raised with the government previously? I'm aware that access to facilities has been raised repeatedly by advocates, because advocates are still being refused. The issue around information is particularly important because they can't always do their job if they can't get access to information. I understand what you are saying about the royal commission, but is there anything that you have looked at that you can do in the meantime, because, as I have already articulated, it's some time before we are going to see the changes via the royal commission?
