As the Member will be aware from my previous responses, there has been one consultation on wildlife interventions. The Member will be acutely aware of the importance of making sure that the consultation is properly carried out. I have been very clear that we need to follow due process on the matter. The ability to bring forward primary legislation after the consultation is inhibited in this mandate because the institutions were collapsed for two years, and there is a lesson to learn from that. When you collapse the institutions, it has real impacts on the citizens of Northern Ireland. People need to be mindful of that when they call for the institutions to be pulled down yet again.
