We discuss questions arising from the recent work of Schellekens, and also from an earlier paper by Schellekens and Yankielowicz. We summarise Schellekens' results, and proceed to discuss the uniqueness of the c=24 self-dual conformal field theory with no weight one states, i.e. the Monster module V^\natural. After introducing the concept of complementary representations, we examine Z2-orbifold constructions in general, and then proceed to apply our considerations firstly to the specific case of the FKS constructions H(Λ) and then to the reflection twisted theories \widetilde H(Λ). Our techniques provide evidence for the existence of several new theories beyond those proven to exist in previous work and conjectured to exist in Schellekens and Yankielowicz.
