I presume that it is not independent and that it is in-house.

John McGuinness: I wish to ask Mr. Nolan a question. Given the current circumstances in terms of pay, conditions and so on and people's desire for transparency, would it not be advisable for all of the organisations present to assess performance in an independent, out-of-house way?
