Many thanks Nyaki and Mctim i look forwad to hearing what other stakeholders think about this, my line of thought may be somewhat archaic, i was thinking when you hire someone to work in an 'independent' institution, they might easily misinterpret the word independent a developement a culture that is independent, (work in isolation) but again maybe it is just the semantics, i wonder what other Listers think, a name always has implications on the organisational psyche. <br>
