I thank Mr. Fitzgerald for the opening statement. The IAA is at great pains to point out it is not responsible for the SIDs. I understand that. Mr. Fitzpatrick is saying they are presented to the authority, which approves them on the basis of whether they meet the safety requirements, and only on that basis. In that respect, does the IAA consult in advance on their appropriateness? Does it have any input into the conversation on what will be presented to it?
