Thank you, Mr. Testart. Further? Seeing no further general comments, we will proceed to a clause-by-clause review of the bill. We will defer the bill number and title until after consideration of the clauses. I believe there are 18 clauses, so we can take them one at a time. Committee, please turn to page 1 of the bill. I will call out each clause. If the committee agrees, please respond as such.

---Clauses 1 through 9 inclusive, approved.
