I completely agree. I was surprised that the RSA did not do self-evaluation. I asked the question and it does not. I have not asked that question of other boards, which I will do in future. I am not saying public companies are the be-all and end-all but most of them do some sort of self-evaluation. That also has its problems because they know each other too well, but they do it. I asked it to so a self-evaluation and it agreed to do so. I am not sure what form it will take. There is and always has been a lack of performance monitoring on boards, which is not adequate.
