Mr. Des Carville:

In due course I can send the Deputy a different opening statement. The opening statement was drafted over several weeks in the expectation that it would be delivered. As I mentioned to the secretariat, I had to scramble in the past couple of days to completely redraft it. I will be very happy in due course to share the original opening statement with the committee and it will definitively prove the stuff about which we wanted to talk. There is no equivocation or hiding in that opening statement in terms of commercial sensitivity. It is the statement the Secretary General was proposing to make.
