If people object to something for whatever reason, they should set out the reason so that we can all see it and make a determination. It should not be something that is not published.
Before I give our witnesses the opportunity to make a final comment, it should be noted that we intend to produce a report by 21 February. Some of you suggested that you would send further information to us. The submissions already made are very good. We have had two other sessions on this topic and we will be collating all of that information so if you wish to send us further information, I ask that you do so by Wednesday, 8 February. I also ask that the information be as concise and to the point as possible because we must consider the secretariat and the workload of its staff.
