I ask now about the body’s information technology, IT, system. We are obviously quite interested in the issue of the hacking of computer systems and all of that kind of stuff which goes on. Some other committees are looking at the fourth industrial revolution, that of artificial intelligence, AI. What kind of thinking does the body have around the IT system it will acquire or require? Where will it come from and who will manage it? Is it the Department, the body itself, or has the body its own people?
