Answer

A Citizen’s Assembly, convened on an annual basis, will be one of the mechanisms used to explore issues recommended for examination by a Compact Civic Advisory Panel. Our priority will therefore be the reestablishment of the Panel to begin this process, which will be progressed in tandem with our assessment of its likely ability to function safely and effectively in a more stable policy environment.
