The key aspect for now is whether Mr. Tyndall has had any indications subsequent to the publication of the report that there has been a change in attitude. We tabled parliamentary questions on it and, to be honest, the responses from the Minister are not hugely different from the responses Mr. Tyndall got midway through the process. We are still being told that we cannot get into the creation of a new scheme or extending the number of institutions, but Mr. Tyndall has stated clearly that that was never sought.
