In fairness, I did not put enough emphasis on that at the outset. Much of this work looks at ways of introducing inclusivity. There are two elements. First, a lot would work better if we had a greater level of understanding. We could probably say that there has been a general understanding in recent years. Second, we could give people strategies for making situations easier. It is not always perfect and we constantly find anomalies. We are getting to a better place, but we are taking a circuitous route to it. It is a twin-track approach.

When the witnesses speak about research, they are not only referring to research on how understanding means improvement but also to research on precision medicines and so on. I will ask a question on that, but what is important is that SFI did this work and asked those questions.
