Mr. Robert Watt:
If you want me to give my views, I do not think the sort of ethical standards that pertained in the media when it comes to the treatment of individuals now is what it was five years, ten, 15 or 20 years ago. The media will now report things, say things and treat people in a way that would have been very different in the past. That is my view. The Chairman and committee members may disagree but that is my view. That has an impact.
