I take this opportunity to raise with the committee my intention to consider one or two aspects of the interview requirement which may need an amendment later. The way we had worded it potentially suggests that all members of the commission must interview every person. As that is not the intention, we need to look at whether we will be prescriptive as to who needs to interview or how many need to interview. It is something I intend to bring forward at a later date to make sure it is not the case that all nine members have to interview all individuals, which would be hugely cumbersome for them.
