I thank the witnesses for their evidence and their answers to the questions, which have been good. I will start with Dr. Crowe and her opening statement. I wish to be fair to her. She raised the change in the drafting of the ninth edition and what she called the misinterpretation of the removal of one paragraph. She has given a rationale for that removal. It is not unusual that, taking into account the previous seven editions, paragraphs would be deleted and additions and changes made. Is that part of the normal process of consultation, editing and reviewing those guides?
