Task force sounds relevant and the final paragraph sums the situation up perfectly. 
Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Hi Johnboy
Yes, that is noticeable - remember a while back Defra admitted their figures may be wrong and would welcome any corrections. Seems they are being realistic in calling them assumptions now. All in all a very interesting read.

Good morning Alan,
Yes a very interesting read. I have been through it twice and there are several indications that the anti-peat campaign has not had the impact that they had taken as a done job. I have printed it off and am reading it in large print which is easier on my eyes. There are several points that I will raise at a later time but have a very full programme on my hands at the present moment and this has come entirely at the wrong time for me.
