To readers of this blog, and in the spirit of true transparency, Bob submitted his comment a few hours prior to our editorial board room meet-up with Minister Carroll. On any normal day, I would have received it and raised the issue during the Minister's meet-up. Unfortunately, due to an internal email conversion the weekend before, I did not receive Bob's comment in time to raise at our meeting. Thanks for your comments, Bob.
