It is my understanding that for a mine to develop, there are certain standards and requirements, but it is unusual to have even an earth panel put together just to develop a mine. There are already precedents for the establishment of mines. So, I would like to ask the Minister, since we are about to get both an earth panel and this cumulative review, could he give us some idea whether these are intended to proceed at the same time and finish at the same time, or will the cumulative review take much longer?
