I thank Deputy Coppinger for the constructive way in which she is engaging on this. I will commit to meeting the Opposition spokespeople in September on this to update them on where we are at on it. At that stage I will have had further engagement in early September with stakeholders on some of the broader issues we have discussed. We can agree as a collective on when would be a useful time to have the questions and answers and statements on this issue. I would be happy to have it soon but it is important we have it when we have something to report to people. That is why I thought the Deputy's suggestion of six months was reasonable.
