Thank you, Chairman. We take this opportunity to commend the committee on the initiative. We will follow the committee's proceedings. We are particularly interested in the committee's engagement with the stakeholders, and we will see what we can do in co-operation to address some of the issues that were raised. I am glad that several colleagues have also put on the record the very positive, empowering and exciting dimension of the phenomenon we are addressing. What we are trying to do is find solutions to deal with the minority who abuse a powerful new technology.
