Mr. Noel Merrick:

The chair has a particular interest in the conflicts of interests of members, etc. Item 1 of all of our meetings relates to conflicts of interest. If there is any issue, it will come up at that meeting. I take a particular interest in all the declarations of interest that come in at this time of the year. I have been in the head office twice since January checking how many declarations have come in and how many more I have to chase.
