This issue does not affect a huge number of people but for those it does affect, particularly if it is retrospective, it is fairly serious and painful. If they had only known how to operate the things legally, the problem would have been easy to avoid. Some of these changes could be done quickly, would not have huge cost implications and would make for a fairer system.

I am really looking forward to seeing the report. It will be great reading. If I have to go to Boston, Australia or somewhere like that, I will read the report on the aeroplane where nobody can get at me. That is a great idea. It would be very useful if there were some indication given in the report as to whether the changes would have to be brought about by regulation or by statute law.
