Professor Alan Ahearne:

The initial date I'd been given was very awkward for me and I asked for a new date and I just thank you, Mr. Chairman, and the members of the committee for facilitating that. This is a very important committee and I know that you're winding down or winding up this part of the phase. I just want to say that the report that comes out will be extremely important so I very much look forward to reading it.
