Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the exact cause of the failure is still under investigation. A preliminary examination of the situation tends to indicate that the generator itself failed, and that's what caused the fire. The fire did not significantly damage the building or the switch gear. At this point in time, it looks like it's only the generator and perhaps the engine which are damaged. As I said, we're still assessing whether or not it's possible to rebuild those. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
