I do not fully agree with Mr. Coughlan when he tells me he is well aware of this. If he were well aware of it, he would have gone back to the board and looked again at this decision and its impact on the people who are losing incomes, but he is entitled to his view.

Are we entitled to obtain the minutes of board meetings? I asked Mr. Coughlan a question. Will the board consider suspending these changes until after an independent review? We are not saying they should be cut out altogether, but they should be suspended until after an independent review. Are we entitled to look at board minutes? We need to see if the board is clued into what is going on in the real world.
