It would be helpful if we could be re-acquainted with the sequence of events in the run-up to this.

If one looks at the last sentence under point number three, it says it would be better if it could be "orchestrated so that the Port requested the authority to undertake this role". We are talking here about a State body referring to another State body and none of this has come up in the hearings we have had on this subject to date. To what are they referring here? What was the role? I am not making any inferences here but simply stating that this is a dimension of the issue that has not been proactively offered to us so far in the discussions we have had. It is very timely that this has come in before our meeting next Wednesday.
