Yes. However, there is still confusion in some respects. Unless we get clarity from the start, we will end up going around in circles. We have terms of reference which were set down by the Government. The problem in the process so far - I am being helpful and constructive in saying this - is that we have not had any outline of what those terms of reference are. The Government has set out a terms of reference. That, whether we like it or not, will place some limitations on us which we may not agree with and we can go back and, as I said, push the boat out.
