I will give my understanding and I am subject to correction. My understanding is that the correspondence was not published as part of today's correspondence as it arrived too late to be included and disseminated to people. It has arrived and we have it. The committee is not meeting until next week so we cannot publish anything. As Chairman, I cannot publish anything next Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday on behalf of the committee. It is the committee that will publish it. That will be a committee decision next week. The committee could decide next week not to publish. Let us be clear about that. We are circulating it so that people can read it and not publish it. I am requesting people not to breach that individually.
