We can talk about optimism or pessimism. The reality is that the people who be interested in the report of this meeting here today are the families who have been impacted. I would like to ask about timescales involved in setting up the statute the witness referred to, that is, the legislation for the Independent Commission on Information Retrieval. It is not up and running. We are here talking about it. Can we give any hope to the people who are listening here today about timescales within which we can get to a stage of optimism?
