Hon member, the answer is yes, because we do review documents. First of all, there was the charter process, which we did in 2009, and we actually came back with a revised charter that deals with some of the issues that you are raising. That was implemented from 2010. In order to improve issues, we are reviewing all the time, or as the need arises. The officials meet at quarterly intervals to look into the alignment of all the processes of the SLPs and their impact on communities. We also deal with best practice in order to resolve some of the matters.
Currently there is the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Amendment Bill. The Act is being amended to provide for SLP sections to be amended. The intention is to strengthen the quality of consultation on SLPs.
Clearly, if we see continuous noncompliance, then that will also impact on the licences that we give to mining companies. We are confident that this matter is receiving urgent attention. You will understand that communities have raised this matter as there have been a lot of inconsistencies in the mining applications. Thank you very much. [Applause.]
