Mr. Dave Walsh:

No, it is not because the OPR has a statutory role to oversee the board. The OPR announced in March or early April that it was undertaking a review of the board's systems and procedures as part of its second wave of local authority reviews. The OPR has done five or six of them. It has scheduled the review for the latter half of next year. That would have looked at the board's systems and procedures and given us a review of best practice. Because of what has happened, it has front-loaded some elements of that relating to certain aspects. I expect that this review will probably kick off some time in the next couple of months.
