The responsibility throughout that period was on the company to produce a viable business plan. I have given the committee the sequence of events of what happened and Deputy Troy is aware of them. There was a series of business plans and suggestions from the company. I have said quite specifically that NewERA looked at them and came to a decision on them. I have given this information quite specifically and also that Grant Thornton, again, looked at the possible options in the management's report and it came to certain conclusions about that. The company itself recently came up with yet another plan and report, which it is now working on. If the Deputy considers that as inactivity, then I do not know what he would consider as activity.
