Mr. Michael Finn:

By way of additional information relating to the appeals, they are not all listed for the one sitting. They will be spread throughout the country over a two-week period. As I understand it, and it is subject to clarification from the courts, a Circuit Court judge will do two sittings each day. These will not be contested cases. We will not be objecting. We will be recommending that the appeals are allowed because we acknowledge that we are wrong. Based on the experience of the test cases we brought before the court, we do not believe it will take long for these matters to be dealt with on the basis of the fact that we are not objecting to them. We believe that scheduling the 3,800 across the country over that two-week period is doable, but I am in the hands of the courts in that regard. I want to acknowledge and thank them for the help and co-operation they gave us.
