Perhaps the hon. Gentleman should declare an interest; I do not know whether he is sponsored by the NDA. I attended one of its meetings— unfortunately, I did not pick up on the new name—at which it said, “We are going to be open and transparent now. We are going to enter into detailed discussions. That did not happen perfectly under Nirex but it will from now on. We are currently looking at five sites.” I asked where those five sites were and the reply was, “Sorry, we can’t tell you.” That is the transparency business. It has inherited some of the worst facets of Nirex.
