Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I guess you could say we've learned from the past. We know that the next stages for potential development will increase significantly and what's going to be required of us to be prepared. We know that if we wanted to do it within existing resources, it probably could be done, but it would delay our ability to get the adequate information out within reasonable time limits. We would delay our response as a government in how we could deal with some of these and be better prepared for this type of development.

So if we are going to be serious about dealing with the potential impacts, we are going to have to resource to a certain degree and move forward. As I stated before, we've scaled this back from what was initially requested. We felt we needed a more coordinated plan, as well as departments needed to build some of this into their business plans, but this is required business planning so we can begin some of the critical work upfront in building the models required by each department.

Part of it is we have learned from the past. We know from our past experience that the timelines that are going to be required are going to pick up speed and move quicker than we can be prepared for. We know that now so we need to be more proactive in this area. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
