(1) any other relevant matters."
The Committee has been asked to give early consideration to those matters which would enable simultaneous progress to be made on aspects of the matter which need not await their full report e.g. the most appropriate general location for a new institution (to enable a site to be earmarked) and sufficient information on its size and structural features to permit preliminary work on its construction to proceed.
