I heard the 8:10 interview.
I thought Humphreys did a pretty good job of skewering the scheme...

Yeah, I was pleased about that
because the minister, whoever she was, was being a slippery shit.

I also heard the interview
I'm really hoping that the final version is watered down, something like this would put me off volunteering- partially the money, partially the whole bother of it all.
They've gone and made it all pinickity over 'frequent' and 'intense' contact with kids too which has caused further confusion.

I really didn't see the need for the Children's minister to be all slippery, what is needed in a situation like this is clarification.
I think a nice Venn diagram would work to illustrate to everyone just exactly who would need to register and who wouldn't, with another to illustrate who would have to pay.
