If Dr. Hynes could, please. I know the answer to my next question, but I will ask it anyway. It relates to assessing possible policy decisions.

Will there be a recommendation to the effect that social impact assessments should be carried out in advance of future policy decisions? Will Dr. Delaney comment on the balance between alternative and traditional methods, changes in communities, etc.? In this regard, I refer to the need for traditional methods to continue to be used while alternatives are being developed.
