To clarify, will that correspondence also include information on who will appoint those who are not from elected members of the constituent authorities? At the moment, it is not entirely clear to me where they are coming from. I have been told that my amendment is unacceptable; it refers to, "““members nominated by authorities other than the ITA’s constituent councils to be appointed by the ITA””."
Can my noble friend clarify who those non-elected members are likely to be appointed by? Is his answer, ““That will be covered in the guidance, because the answer to that question is not known at the moment””? What is the objection to those who are nominated by authorities other than the ITAs’ constituent councils having their appointments confirmed by the ITAs—for example, there are nominations and the ITAs make the appointments? Is it suggested that some sort of party political corruption will take place? Is it suggested that we shall end up with people who do not have the right knowledge? What is the wrong that leads my noble friend to say no to my amendment? What difficulty does my noble friend see with my amendment?
