That is the plan. I apologise for this but we are going through the mechanics of how we will operate. Our next meeting is on Tuesday. The first part of the session is to deal with finalising the structures and the afternoon session is allocated to the Minister and the city and county managers.

The one concern is that we are bringing them in with a very broad format. Perhaps we will be able to narrow it down. It goes back to some of the comments made about specific questions. We should be conscious of it. Beyond next Tuesday, we should focus our questions, while the submissions people are prepared to make should be more specific and targeted. We will not have this advice or direction ready by tomorrow to be sent to the relevant people.
