We will get it checked out. As I understand it, there is no transcript but we will see if it can be done. That is not a commitment that it will be done, however. We will inquire about that. We have agreed to invite the whistleblower in, to meet in private session to discuss the relevant matters and not to stray into the areas that are being investigated by the commission. The legal advice will be that we should not stray into any areas that the commission is examining. We do not have that legal advice yet but the committee members have decided to invite the witness to appear before us. In advance of that meeting, we will be advised, if necessary, by the legal staff of the particular areas that are under the remit of the commission into which we cannot stray. The meeting will proceed on that basis.
