We are well aware of the delays caused by Covid and the original targets that had to be re-assessed. NBI is in the process of agreeing new targets for 2020. Have any concerns been expressed in the discussions with the Department around NBI's ability to ramp up in the next 12 months? Everyone understands that we need to have an acceleration plan. How is that progressing in terms of the new targets Mr. Hendrick talked about in the context of M1s and M2s? I would like to get his assessment on that.
