It's the job of the government to always put the public interest ahead of the vested interest, always.
And reform is never easy.
We saw with my colleague Jennifer Carl-McNeill around public-only consultant contracts.
We're seeing it with Jim O'Callaghan in terms of the legal services.
Like, reforms are tough, but they're important.
The people expect us to strive for value for money.
But look,
It's also important, access to justice matters, engagement matters, and taking down the tempo is always important in any dispute too.
So let's see where this gets to.
No.
Look, Barry's a good friend of mine, good colleague of mine, but Jim O'Callaghan is...
is doing a very good job as Justice Minister and I generally believe sometimes people engage in colourful language to make a point but it's a very big difference between Trump and Iran and the agenda being driven by Minister Jim O'Callaghan.
So I think there's a grey between that very black and white question.
I fully support the Minister for Justice.
I fully support the reform agenda.
It is the government's position, not Jim O'Callaghan's position.
You know, sometimes in media discussion it gets made about the individual minister.
Ministers act as a collective.
Jim is the Justice Minister.
But I do want to obviously see, as I know Jim does, an end to this dispute.
