Ms Suzanne Eade:

I like the idea of an independent body. That can have a very good purpose. The two executive teams are working together closely to see how we can get better together. We cannot do well without a strong IHRB and it cannot do a great job without a strong HRI. The focus of recent work between the two executives has been on what is working, what is not working and how to make things better. There are areas in which there could be synergies between the two organisations. I am very supportive of that. The change in the IHRB makes me believe it is open to looking at some things very differently. An area in which HRI and the IHRB need to get stronger together is the area of technology. A great deal needs to be spent in this area. I refer to spending on cybersecurity and how we go to market. There is an opportunity for us to be better in that area. We are very dependent on the fact that there is very significant volunteer element to the IHRB. I am not 100% sure whether that could fit into a semi-State set-up. I would definitely like to have a better understanding of that. The creation of a board that is distinct from the club is good. Independent members are now going to be brought onto that board which will bring about a bit of diversity. That should help. There is no doubt that the two organisations work very well in a crisis. We want to get better at working together on an ongoing basis and on information exchange. Those are all areas in which we will work jointly to improve.
