We need a timeline for when we will discuss it. Most likely the discussion will take place after the local elections simply because we have not done any work on it.

On the broadband report, for a number of reasons it was correct not to proceed with the meeting yesterday. Obviously, we have the letter from Mr. Robert Watt, that is, the memo that was published yesterday. Given that we now have that letter, how do we intend to deal with it in the context of our broadband report which essentially is unfinished business? I know that it will deal with a lot of other issues also. We have a number of options, including that we proceed with our report as is and deal with the letter separately or we deal with it and the questions it raises as part of an ongoing process and perhaps incorporate our examination of Mr. Watt's concerns into the report. I am looking for the guidance of the Chairman on the best way to proceed.
