Going through the mountains of correspondence we see, a great deal of it is not appropriate to the committee. I do not necessarily mean this matter. Some thought should be given to being quite public about what is and is not appropriate. People are always looking for an outlet to get a remedy and, as such, understanding the remit of the committee is a public information issue. That might be considered to alert people to the fact that the committee is not the location for remedies which are within the remit of Departments or other jurisdictions.
