Mr. Gunning's opening statement was very hard-hitting and I do not think he should apologise for that because it is his job to make sure that the contractor does its job. He said its behaviour is unacceptable and he illustrated a number of examples, such as where there was only 65% progress and 35% compliance. I would imagine that relates to feet on the ground in terms of getting work done. In Mr. Gunning's view, is that a tactic by the contractor? Is that essentially what he is saying here?
