That is the sense we have all received from today's meeting. I will ask my colleague, Deputy Michael McGrath, to speak shortly, but there is a fairly united message from all of our guests to the effect that they are frustrated with the system as it is. They are being encouraged to contemplate doing certain things but when they try to do them, there appears to be a barrier or a wall of silence. I am not sure what it is, so perhaps on Thursday we will ask those questions, on their and our behalf, as to why some of the progress has not been made. It is almost frightening to think that the implementation group of the CUAC has met only once since that report emerged.
