Mr. Phil Meaney:
Prior to 2007, the control committee was selected from the board and the appeals committee was selected from the part of the board that was not on the control committee. Legislation was put in place in order that an independent committee had to be established. At the moment that is a committee of the board, but Indecon recommended further that it be appointed by the Minister of the day rather than the board. I think that is a very good idea.
