I have a final question. Mr. McDonnell meets regularly with Ministers and Ministers of State. When he is meeting with them, does he routinely or otherwise request that no notes be taken? Would he be happy that notes are taken? Does he understand that the taking of notes is the norm? Certainly, in my previous role whenever I met with Ministers we always understood that notes would be taken. I am curious to know the circumstances under which this would happen.
