What Mr Connolly said is what I meant when I said publicly that it was appropriate for us to allow a select committee to have a look at the process that we have gone through - not to deal with whether or not to corporatise, but rather to deal with the more peripheral issues - but also to deal with more fundamental issues if the committee and the Assembly considered them appropriate. The question to corporatise or not to corporatise is the one that has been resolved, in principle, this evening, and now it is a matter of those details. So, Mr Speaker, I take pleasure in supporting this very sensible amendment.

Amendment agreed to.
