Mr. Peter Whelan:
In general it does. We have a small number of cases where we are waiting for information longer than we would have liked. We may have members who we would find difficult to meet if we need to do a caution interview. We have to set up a date, often with their solicitor. The solicitor would become unavailable or the member might be unavailable. That can take a while but by and large, it does co-operate.
