I'm not sure I heard the Minister correctly, but it seemed to me, in his introductory comments, that he was sort of downplaying the significance or importance of the monetary policy remit. One of the concerns I have had with the framework of this bill and the degree to which we are moving away from the principles of statutory independence of the Reserve Bank from the Minister is that we seem to be going in two directions that are both sort of counter to that. One is the Minister is having a quiet, step-by-step level of influence over the Reserve Bank that I and my party are uncomfortable with, and yet a distancing of this House from that scrutiny as well.
