Does Professor McMullin think we may be trying to be too perfectionist about it? I mean that in the sense of having to ensure that every peer review has been covered rather than trying to pass the carbon budgets and that the council is doing the best it can, especially within the time constraints. I appreciate Professor McMullin's argument that there is not as much of a time constraint involved, but there are time constraints nonetheless.
