I welcome the Minister and witnesses. I know they have had a long session. I acknowledge that the Minister mentioned in his opening statement the six points and the proposal we are discussing this morning meets all those goals and provides those reassurances. As members of the committee, we received correspondence from two members of the board yesterday who dissented from the decision. Does the Minister understand why they cannot be convinced or why they dissented? Is it something that concerns the Minister? He is trying to convince us as members and the general public through this committee of the bona fides of the decisions and the plans put to the Government on which decisions are to be made. Is the Minister concerned that two members of the board dissented for the reasons they outlined?
