Interesting that Mike Smiff seeks to rely on the infamous Willoughby Report in response to the questioning of any perceived or real benefits to be attained under NAS.
At the recently held RAAA conference Mike, in a response to a question specifically questioning the benefits of NAS and indeed the Willoughby Report, said (words to the affect) that he doesn't think anybody should really take any notice of that report.
I understand the forums are recorded so it would be interesting to see if he has expressed the same sentiment to the Minister!
