I had those conversations with the chair of the board in December. I doubt the position changed much between late September and now. I would be amazed if the board said it was fully confident in any timetable the contractor has given it because every single timetable the contractor has given it has proven not to be the case. The board will speak for itself. Based on my conversations with it, it has accepted the programme of works and is working to that programme. I would be astonished if the board said it was confident.
