The Culliton Group considered that my Department should "define its role as being predominately one of policy determination for development, the supervision of its implementation and in terms of the importance of the business-related environment".
I agree with the general approach recommended by the Culliton Group as regards regulatory functions and am considering the precise recommendations, with all the other recommendations of the group. The organisational arrangements for particular regulatory functions need to take account of how those functions can be performed most efficiently, most effectively and most economically.
As I have said in response to other questions, a Cabinet sub-committee is proceeding to ensure the implementation of the Culliton report.
