The risk that is there is unthinkable. We are not talking thousands, but probably tens of thousands of people who are at risk. You would have to say that this work needs to be done and we could sort out the issues afterwards, it is that urgent. As a committee, we will do what we can to highlight that issue further and push it because people should not be at that kind of risk. It is as simple as that.

I have one other issue. Again, I apologise if I missed this earlier. With regard to international best practice, if we move away from the defects, we have a lot of ongoing issues.
