I am keen to see more deliberations at the finish and I do not believe we should close the petition today. It should come before us again after further consultation with the people involved. I had some concerns with regard to the statement he made whereby he said he did not want the committee to contact the Ombudsman about the complaint he submitted to it. I appreciate that he has said that it might be a different complaint but I am unsure and I thought it somewhat unusual and funny. That is his personal decision and that is fine. Regardless, I do not believe we should close the petition today.
