Mr. Jeremy Masding:

In 2015, we felt that the complexity and the time required for loss of ownership and legal cases was such that we would ring-fence those for an independent panel. It is always a value judgment but we felt that we had a very high bar to meet in terms of our duty of care to those who had lost their homes and who were in "late legal" and that is why we did it.
