Mr. John Moran:

We would have to get consent from individuals as to whether they are willing to provide such information. I do not have a problem and I do not think anyone here has a problem with the public knowing who they are because they are senior people. When people turn up at meetings there are numerous people at the table interacting with the public. We also move staff around frequently because we want to break down the sense of individuals being in one particular policy area. We have a chart of our own, and it is a big exercise to maintain it in the IT area because people move around quite regularly. There are 350 people.
