RAU: Even Kirsten—I asked my staff to communicate with the Minister for Police's staff to see whether he would be available to assist. In the event that I am advised by my staff that he is available to assist, I then ask my staff to arrange for the necessary staff from the Department of Planning to communicate with the Minister for Police's chief of staff or other nominated person, whoever they might be, and then they, independently of me, arrange to meet with the Minister for Police at a time and place of his choosing, and they tell him whatever he asks them to share with him, and I have no part in that process at all.
