Deputy McDonald made a very practical suggestion, but I despair of this. We are being treated like children in a school. Our role is to do a job as best we can in the fairest way we can. The challenge is to continue to do that regardless of what somebody puts into a newspaper. It places a higher onus on us to question rigorously but fairly. If I go back to the Commissioner, there were difficulties in the way the document we now have was produced on the day. We did not have copies of that. It was introduced on the day.
