I welcome our guests. We see this as a healthy and important exchange. I have only recently become a member of the committee.

Mr. Redmond referred to Ireland’s pharmaceutical industry, one of our stronger industries. I understand further testing needs to take place in the United States, which is very costly. Is it because there is a higher standard of testing in the United States than in the European Union?
