I am impressed with what the Deputy says, but I think this may be a double-edged sword. As so often happens in this House, the Deputy is asking me to do things I am not empowered to do. I will meet the TII very shortly. I cannot remember the date; it is either in the next week or two or in August. If the Deputy gives me a briefing on this I will give it to the TII at that meeting. I am interested in what the Deputy says and will listen to what the TII has to say and go from there. I will put it directly to the people there who have the power to make decisions on something like this.
