I am conscious of time. A lot of this will probably overlap with our next topic so with members' agreement, we can move on. I thank our witnesses for attending the first session today. We got a taste of the complexities and the huge level of work that went on during the last number of adverse weather conditions. I thank them on behalf of the committee for the work that was carried out on the ground. When we were all told to stay at home and be safe, a lot of people were out there trying to solve problems while their families were at home worried so I thank the witnesses for what happened in the past couple of months.
