Mr. Martin Fraser:

I fully appreciate the Deputy's concern. There is no denying that there is a very high level of access. The group has been in place since 1987 and it has, by and large, been very successful. Successive Governments have agreed with the group's existence and Governments, including this Government, have had strategies for developing this sector which includes this Clearing House Group which I chair ex officio. I also chair the National Economic and Social Council which gets less coverage.
