I thank the witnesses for their time and for the presentation. I congratulate Mr. Gunning on the tough role he has taken up. There is a lot of heat attached to it and a lot of people are watching. I genuinely wish him the very best. I ask him to excuse the directness of the question, as it is relevant to his role and to this hospital. When he outlined his experience I did not see any experience in building hospitals or major buildings. Was that an omission? Has Mr. Gunning led the construction of a major hospital in the past? Has he led the construction of other major building projects? He referenced telecoms but I am asking specifically about buildings rather than engineering or communications networks.
