I will ask Stephen to comment on that last point. The point about our having a view before decisions are made and legislation is passed is absolutely right.
Perhaps we could reflect that in the report.Do members have any points to make? The draft report does not mention specifically our videolink to Finland, which I thought was a highlight.
If members do not have any general points to make now but want to make detailed comments on the proposals, they can submit them by e-mail or in writing to the committee clerk.
Although I accept what the legal briefing has to say on the narrow points relating to this particular piece of subordinate legislation, I would reiterate the point that I made two weeks ago.
The committee will remember that Stewart Maxwell raised the point last week.The Executive explains that the exception in article 1 is intended to be personal and is not limited to the present period of office for governors.
