well Scurvey,
Looks like you got me. The election was a bit later in the year than I had anticipated, and the new Minister is still picking up the pieces.
For 'end of the year', substitite - very early in 2008. The Minister needs to bang some heads together, and also fins a suitable candidate for Board Chairman.
Oh, and in case you think ATC staffing will be the 'issue du jour' - think again. The Minister will have made his decision on a range of issues - including ATC staffing - but mostly around airspace [mis]management.
Re the wind ups - good to see I've managed to catch you too - I'm falling about laughing as I type....
