I thank Dr. Flynn and all our guests. It has been a really interesting discussion, as was the case yesterday. The meeting yesterday was our first of several on this issue. As has been mentioned, it is complex but is it great to have the opportunity to consider it and the time to allow for questions and answers because it brings more clarity to our work. We really appreciate it. I thank the members of the committee. We hope to work with our guests on this issue going forward.

Is it agreed to publish the opening statements for the meetings today and yesterday to the website? Agreed.
