It would be very helpful to see inserted a note that states under the project funded by the NZ gvernment in support of the objectives of the livestock research group of the global research alliance.

Previously addressed comments 
Question from PGgRc: How confident should we be about the use of PME as a data set compared to the actually measured sheep ? We have been here before with the boviquest herd comparisons. Will any loci that are favoured by this analyst still be protectable or if there are common areas then these are being identified and released into the public domain? We have not agreed to fully release this information and therefore we ould like to be clear of our ground. 

Confirmation required from GRA: We would just like to be sure that Natalie and John are confident that this presentation won't jeopardise the submission of an article to an international peer reviewed journal which is a contractual obligation for delivery of milestone 7. 

As long as you are confident this will still happen when presenting this data then we will approve it.
I would like to add however that the data should have been analysed by 31st August - so perhaps the wording needs to be changed to reflect this.
