I thank the IFFPG for again appearing before the committee. Senator Lombard put it accurately in regard to the significant volume of plastic out there, with the levy paid on it, that is causing an environmental problem, although we can argue about the tonnage. It is an issue that will have to be addressed. Mr. Moloney has made it clear that it is not IFFPG's problem and I fully accept where he is coming from. He made that clear and he has been distinct on it. Nevertheless, it is an issue that will have to be dealt with and I hope we can get a resolution. I appreciate the IFFPG representatives coming back before the committee today, after such a short interval, to give us an update on where we are.
