Again, just to provide some parameters for the steering committee, my recollection is that we, as a matter of routine, don't normally go to intervenor status. We're always focusing on natural justice. It's not a courtroom, per se. Especially when we're dealing with group rights, and it's an accountability issue--and ultimately all accountability leads back to the public--it would seem to me that the steering committee would want to look at these as potential exceptions. And recognize that when we set precedent, we have to live with it down the road.
I think that within that context, this may be one of those occasions when it would be very helpful to our work. I agree with you that it's a detail that needs to be threshed out at steering committee and then a recommendation would come back here.
