I have nothing further to report, except the fact that Ruth Cooper is attending her last meeting of the committee. She has been promoted to senior assistant clerk of the Audit Committee. On behalf of the committee, I thank Ruth for all her work, which has been excellent. We have enjoyed her presence here. It is a shame that she was with us for only a short time, but I am sure that she will be inspired by the work of this committee to spread good practice throughout the other committees of the Parliament. We wish her every success in her new post and hope that she gets on in it. Unfortunately, there may be a delay in replacing Ruth, and we may have even fewer staff for several months, which is not so good.
