Agree totally about the quality of the members of the AFPRB, I was always humbled by the breadth of knowledge and critical analysis they could bring to bear. That said, I totally disagree with the assertion that they, " went rogue when given the responsibility." There is plenty of evidence to support the view that the AFPRB did their job to the letter of their remit but were frustrated by Treasury failing to listen to their views.
