        <text id="20071113c4a71dbeb92c41abb0000494">It is in the interests of all involved in the Inquiry that the Inquiry conclude at its scheduled time, 31 December 2007. To extend it beyond this date in order to enable it to embark on a wider inquiry would do a disservice to all those who are waiting for its report.</text>
