Dr. Janz broadly covered my questions. Part of it related to the ethical side of allowing a person with a disability to avail of medically-assisted dying. It was more a medical question in regard to the ethics, with which I have difficulty coming to terms, of the expansion that occurred in the past number of years and the further expansion to occur next year. Those were my two outstanding questions.
