There seems to be a misunderstanding. Senator Hanson was asking about requiring ICLs to meet more than once. Based on the current drafting of the legislation they are only required to meet once. The point Senator Hanson was making was that there may be a requirement to meet more than one time. Just so we're all on the same page here, can you take us to the wording that actually shows it's not a requirement to meet once but that you could meet—

That's what I'm trying to now find out because it has got very confusing very quickly. Can you find the section that's going to be put in and read it out just so that Senator Hanson and I are both confident that the question that she asked has been addressed correctly? If not then we can pursue it some more. Where in the legislation does it say that the ICL has discretion to meet more than once?
