The proposal is to solicit further review of the only
two proposals we have in front of us. Despite 12 months time for
anyone else to bring forward an additional proposal, this is what we have
now. If you or anyone else has an additional proposal to make, I'm
sure we'd all love to receive it, discuss it, and subject it to the same
level of scrutiny that the existing two proposals have had. Having
more choices is a good thing.
Although I am not abandoning all hope that there is
a 3rd proposal, better than the two we have, and one that we'd all agree
on, the fact that no such proposal has emerged, not even in outline, after
a year of discussion, makes me less confident that this is likely.
Of course, I'd love to be proven wrong here.
