I see that Mr. Tyndall's recommendations include the Department reconsidering the applications it has received. He gave the Department a timeframe of three months at the longest to do so. He said that it should immediately estimate the numbers involved and develop a timeframe. Two months of that timeframe of three months at most have now expired. Has Mr. Tyndall had any indication that proactive engagement, which he said was necessary in respect of the wards of court, is under way in this regard? Has he had any level of engagement at all subsequent to this?
