I have nothing to add to my original comments other than to respond to Mr Brooks. It was clear in our Committee discussions and in my remarks that I certainly do not view the date as a target and would hope that we could move through the process more quickly, but, given the particular concerns raised by the teaching profession, it is important to build in the time to hear that evidence. There is certainly no intention of foot-dragging on my part. Other than that, I covered everything in my opening remarks and am happy to conclude.
