It would be behind closed doors, and people feel that the whole disciplinary process historically has been behind closed doors, hence the lack of transparency. I am jumping ahead because I have not got to the Government yet, but that is my view and I was going to communicate that today to Women of Honour and then have further discussions with them. There is only one genuine motivation here. I know, having been involved in various inquiries in the past, how time slips. If we lose two or three more months before we come back after the summer recess, we will then go forward, between preparation and discoveries, and there is a lot in this. Let us be honest: we are looking at a number of years before this work concludes. The Deputy is absolutely correct about the importance of this work for the future of our Defence Forces. It is absolutely essential that it is a catalyst for a change in culture and how we do things in the future.
