Just before we end the discussion, it is important that at some stage we put on the record our appreciation for all those people in those positions. We do not do that often enough. There can be a huge workload involved in just one case, not to mention a group of cases. Again, I would like to know the criteria but I can understand the reluctance to appoint people because if one wrong person is appointed, that is the one that is remembered, not the others that are positive and so on. I can understand the system being tardy or reluctant to move forward on appointments.
