Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, part of the other end of this is from the insurance side in ensuring that we don't sustain major losses. Risk assessments have been done in a number of areas to ensure our facilities are safe, that we have the proper procedures in place, and that in some cases we're not over insured as well as not under insured. Also ensuring that they're safe to go in because we sure don't want to be caught in the situation where we lose any more. Thankfully there were no injuries as a result, beyond that of the fireman who was trying to help extinguish the fire that happened there. Beyond that, the security that then happened around the place because of the fire, as well as the collapse, there was a contract put in place to ensure that there was no further access. Once the work was done and the place secured and the normal mechanisms for entrances could be locked, there hasn't been a further extension of that contract. That is something we'd have difficulty doing, is trying to get back into a place where we'd have 24-hour surveillance. When it comes to the safety of our building and assets, when it comes to self-insurance we have to ensure we have proper and adequate oversight on these things. But we don't have a 24-hour contract in place for supervision. Thank you.
