Mr. Robert Watt:

No. We have an open mind on this. The best thing is for us to provide the information and we will be happy to talk subsequent to that. If the Deputy thinks at that stage that having some further process that could provide greater reassurance that the Departments are delivering I would be happy to engage with him. We did not feel on this occasion that it is required and we established a process with which we are happy but we are happy to have the debate.
