4. THE PRESENCE ON THE SUB-COMMITTEE OF AN NCNA STAFF MEMBER HAS ALSO BEEN THE SUBJECT OF ADVERSE PUBLIC COMMENT BY DOROTHY LIU. JUSTICE LI WAS SUBSEQUENTLY QUOTED AS SAYING THAT THE STAFF MEMBER WAS THERE AT HIS (LI'S) INVITATION.
5. FIVE OF THE SIX MEMBERS OF THE SUB-COMMITTEE HELD A PRESS CONFERENCE WITH THE NCNA OFFICIAL PRESENT ON 14 AUGUST AFTER THEIR FINAL MEETING. JUSTICE LI ANNOUNCED THAT A GENERAL CONCENSUS HAD BEEN REACHED ON A DRAFT CONSTITUTION FOR THE CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEE. THIS WOULD BE SUBMITTED TO THE FULL 25 MEMBER PREPARATORY COMMITTEE WHICH WOULD DECIDE WHETHER TO ADOPT IT AND MAKE IT PUBLIC.
6. WE THEREFORE EXPECT TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE WAY AHEAD MORE CLEARLY IN A WEEK'S TIME WHEN THE AGREED DRAFT CONSTITUTION IS MADE PUBLIC.
