    • Meeting date: 14 November 2001
    You've referred to the problems with this initiative. Without talking your way through the entire history again, John, which I'm sure you don't want to go through, can you say what you would have done differently if you were doing this again? And exactly how is it that an initiative that was supposed to be launched about now has only just been agreed by the ALG? What went wrong and what would you have done differently?
