I thank the witnesses for coming before the committee to assist us. I will start with Professor Jones. I am taking two points from what he is saying, which are to do with safeguards and eligibility. We have discussed the question of safeguards with lawyers over the past weeks. Do they work? Professor Jones seems to be suggesting that they do not.
