Can I just cut across Mr. O'Rourke? I agree with Mr. O'Rourke that CPOs should be a last resort. However, surely his previous experience shows that getting agreement is often easier when the threat of CPO is in his back pocket than when he does not have the threat there at all. My argument is not for more CPOs, but to give him that bit of a stick to make the carrot work more efficiently.
