This is not the first time some derogatory remarks have been made about the committee in general. None of us is so sensitive that we are going to be concerned about the issue but it shows a mindset of seeking to manage the committee that is totally unacceptable. The Chairman is quite correct that we have a job to do and the public will make a decision as to whether we are doing a good one. They get a chance to do that every time there is an election.
