Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Before getting to the sound science part of the question, I appreciate the question because it's an opportunity to make it very clear that we believe the virtual elimination list, while perhaps it should be retained in the event that it can be used, is not the approach that should be taken. Rather, the substance that has been proposed for virtual elimination but that still hasn't made it on the list has made it on the list of prohibited substances under the prohibition of certain toxic substances regulations. The evidence from that shows it's a way that can be made to work, whereas we would not continue down that path of the VE list, including for the reasons around level of quantification that we've recommended. That's again why we're proposing to refocus on the overall purpose of VE rather than all of this focus on the level of quantification question.
