I thank Mr. McLoughlin. I will finish with a comment. They are not using the social enterprise model in Copenhagen, but the municipality, state and local authorities. That is a related point. We may want to see that as well and to engage with the CCMA and others about whether the local authorities can do that. Leveraging the decades-long experience of local authorities would be important if we are to deliver something and have a new way of doing things become mainstream. I look forward to updates on that. I thank the witnesses and the Chair.
