I thank the Chair. Dr. Hillyer heard what I said about the regulatory body and the fact that it is, in effect, a closed shop. It has no directors appointed by the State. It does not have an independent State appointed chairperson. There is no perception that there is a complete separation if there are situations where directors could be involved in the industry.
