I found it interesting that there are some submissions that say little more than “i do not support the concept of a super tribunal”. Some other submissions are 50 pages. I just thought Jimmy T, “the only credible show in town”, might have expressed a view … no need to write a book.
I am yet to read anything in this forum on whether you support a super tribunal or not; but then i do not read everything.
The standing committee did not selectively seek the opinion of SCA, OCN, or CTTT yet these groups make submissions, the Law Society of NSW and many others made submissions. None of these opinions were selectively sought. Standing committees call for submissions, they do not personally ask anyone even if they are the only credible show in town; whose influence motivates the Minister.
They ask everyone and you were included in the open invitation. To be honest i thought the most credible show in town would have had something to say about it. You as much as anyone know how these things work; better to say something even if it is as simple as “yes i support” or “no i do not support”.
I feel this forum is one of the better strata forums and can understand your desire to comment at a latter date without any hint of sour grapes – hence no Jimmy T submission, fair enough, but given your opinions are so widely known then won't people think any negative commentary you do make in a future comment is just some sort of sour grapes anyway?
May you have success skinning the “strata cat” your way.
