I thank the Chair and everyone who has attended today. I am new to the committee and was not here for previous engagements on this topic but I have read the opening statements, done some research and missed a few calls from people as well.

Basically, there is a clear and serious breakdown in relationships here. One of the things that came across from reading through the opening statements related to who was setting policies for the industry and sector and what qualifications did they have. There seems to be a question mark as to the general direction the industry is going, why it is going in that direction and how it is doing so. I would like to tease that out a bit. What has been suggested by that comment? Perhaps Mr. Draper could respond.
