I would like to take up the Senator's point. We will have a good opportunity to discuss the Ryan report tomorrow and I look forward to doing so and putting on the record some things about which I was challenged last week. In the meantime it is very important for us to articulate a clear view that in terms of responsibility, the congregations - the 18 orders - and the State should share the cost equally. It should be a 50-50 response. To those people who ask if we want to start selling the schools and hospitals, the answer is "No". However, I want the deeds of those schools and hospitals transferred to our ownership-----
