I have made my intention clear, in recent communications with stakeholders, to proceed with the establishment of the Resolution Board as recommended by the independent Pyrite Panel. Discussions are on-going with the these stakeholders and sufficient progress has been made in trying to arrive at mechanisms to provide a solution for the affected homeowners to justify y the continuation of the engagement for a further short period . However, I will not allow the discussions to drag on and I expect them to conclude very shortly. I am hopeful that the outcome of the discussions will be positive but in any event I will be seeking to advance solutions for homeowners in the context of the recommendations of the Panel.
