Very well. The joint committee decided this warranted further scrutiny to keep it under observation with a view to what were the implications, and members are trying to ascertain this with the aim of making a contribution to the process, be it to the Minister, the working group or to the Council at that level, on the implications therein. It is interesting that the IGFA has made a recommendation to stick with the status quobecause while it is often less than happy with the status quo, it perceives this proposal potentially to be a little more restrictive from its perspective.
