 The key objectives of the forum from my perspective were to set up the strategic alliance which you can see beside me to actually bring the three elements of law enforcement, government and military together and most importantly have a strategic output or outcome at the end of it. What we're looking at with the strategic alliance is to bring a coalition of the willing, if you like, together to form a partnership to actually tackle the IED scourge and by doing that we want to put that in an alliance whereby we've got a strategy with a vision which we're looking at is to reduce the IED threat and save lives and then set up a number of pillars that will enable us to do that. The four pillars are information sharing whereby we make sure that we pass information around each other, public awareness whereby we make sure not only the sort of EOD teams and the response teams know what's going on but more importantly the civilians so they know what to look for to look after their own safety. We've got building capacity, capacity building whereby we can build each other's capacity so we become better at responding to the threat and the last one is component control and trying to make sure some of the components that are integral devices or items of the device we can either track them and stop them becoming an integral part of the device or do something about it when we actually know what's in the device. I would see this forum over the next few months the working groups would actually go and consider the four elements of the pillars in detail, present those back and at the forum we would then say right a year ago we came up with here's the proposal of a strategy which is in principle is in general to make that hey this is what we're going to do now so in a year's time I see us being a quantum leap forward in terms of us now being able to go on through the front foot.
