It certainly is the intent that this is done just once, and it is an agreement. It is not about ticking the box or anything to do with the single audit. It is about an arrangement that recognises the peculiar sensitivities within each of the sectors.

One would hope that it is simply an informal process that is agreed to at this stage.
