I welcome the witnesses and thank them for coming before the committee and for their presentation. I wore the sustainable development goals badge this morning. Many people ask me what it is when they see it. I do not know whether the witnesses agree with me but I think it is important to have awareness of the goals and what they are and that this would be spread across industry, society, business and so forth. To what extent do the witnesses think people are aware of the goals and what they are? I refer to employers, employees, people with whom we work, and people who are involved here in the presentation in actually promoting and developing the goals. Has any work been done on that? Do people know about these goals?
