No, I do not because I am leading a consultation on the matter so it would be wrong of me to have a view of the staff or consultation on which I want to engage everybody else. Of course, the Department and I will make our view known at the end of this process. I said at the very start that I am happy to come back to the committee to engage when we are finished our work on this, but we are not yet finished. It would be wrong of me to ask people for their views while telling them I have an opinion that is formed already. That would not serve much purpose.
