Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, yesterday we committed to basically work out a plan for the so-called coming into force of the two bills related to oil and gas, so we will do that. We will basically look through the bills clause by clause and identify which parts of the bill, which clauses, can come into force right away versus other ones that will need some additional guidance work to support them and estimated timelines by engaging with the regulators where their assistance or where their leadership in developing these guidance notes will be required. Clearly, when the regulators develop guidance notes, they have an engagement process therein, so there would be elements of these bills that will need to wait for that, but there will be much here that will be able to come into force very expeditiously. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
