secondly, if they accept those arguments, then before anything becomes public i then need to embark on a process of consultation with the residents themselves and with their relatives and with their staff, so that we can explain it carefully to them — what it'll involve, the time scale, what their options are going to be, how we'll go through this process and all the rest of it, all the ins and outs, and then i shall have to then go formally to a special meeting of the social services committee, probably in april, to say that i've carried out this consultation, that this is my recommendation as to the home the council should choose, and if they agree that then we move into implementation.
