I will begin with those last two more technical questions. I appreciate the Deputy's positive comments. It is a huge step forward and, therefore, again, it is important to get it right and be as careful as we can. In this regard, the committee will be aware that we are in a peer review process with the OGCIO. The Deputy asked questions about the simplification of language. It is important we take this on board and it will be fed into the process. As we move through the peer review process, each of these issues, particularly those the Deputy raises, will be considered carefully. I will turn to my officials to answer the question about the implementation phase, as well as the question as to how long the tendering will take.
