I understand the committee has recommended that we will forward the latest correspondence we have received to the petitioner. We propose to close the petition because we feel we, as a committee, cannot do more with it at this point. As Deputy Kitt advised, even though we have closed the petition, we will also seek an update from the relevant agencies as we move forward. Although at this point we feel that we cannot do anymore, we want to keep an ongoing interest in the matter. Is that agreed? Agreed.
