I thank the witnesses for appearing before us today. This is part of an ongoing process of scrutiny, which will take a little time. We are meeting the animal welfare groups, obviously. We will be dealing with the industry representatives in the next couple of weeks. I hope the witnesses' contribution today will inform legislation in the future. I am sure they will be tuning in to our meetings as we meet over the next couple of weeks. Again, I thank them for appearing today.
