I suppose in practice it'd be basically like CRS and LegComm sharing a room.

That would seem better structured than having a host of people trying to approve all applications.
That means that promoting somebody from junior to senior won't be possible if they're still accepting apps and whatnot. Kinda weird and counterproductive.
Yes — I mean, unless I'm misreading the argument/legislation, the two are already working together, this would just make it a closer working relationship.
And ... could/would it work if the CSI formed a "committee" for legislator apps from their ranks?

How about this really simple idea; we split the CRS into two as suggested, but don’t scrap the Leg Com.
If the objective of this is to have a more flexible security system that splits the intelligence and regional security functions this would achieve exactly that, without putting an intelligence body in charge of overseeing Assembly membership.

I think the end result would be a body which otherwise would currently be advising the CRS which I'm not yet sure is necessarily a strong case for reform.

But I thought the split between an intelligence body and security body was the whole point of this?

I wouldn't personally be opposed. Could we make the CSI in charge of appointing LegComm people?

In keeping with the spirit of the original proposal.

But why is that necessary? Is the LegCom not functioning? Can anyone point to someone they have approved for Assembly membership that the shouldn't have?

I believe it is.
Forgive my indecision. I'm still evaluating the merits of this reform.

This is what I was going to propose as a compromise if the original idea didn't go anywhere.
