I thank the two witnesses for attending and for their frankness. It is disappointing that people who represent these bodies are not on the implementation body. I would go further and say there should be a few entrepreneurs on it as well. I would like that proposal to be forwarded to the Minister. I do not know at what stage in the cycle we are in terms of when the implementation body will report back and what the next consultation will be. I appreciate that the body will report in December but I am not sure where the process will go from there. The body will report to the Minister but will that be the end of the process or will we have a say in it?
