As I indicated to the House last week, the draft report is in the process of being prepared and, as agreed with the key stakeholders, will be made available to them in the first instance prior to making it more widely available. You will appreciate that any recommendation resulting from the review will need to be carefully considered before revising the current Scheme. I do not expect revised arrangements to be ready for implementation until early 2010.
