To that particular request, the minister did provide a response, and I believe Environmental Defence provided that to you as part of its evidence. From listening to their testimony, they did note that an interim response had been provided. There's no requirement for a decision within 90 days; there is a requirement for a response. That response noted the fact that further science is required.
For example, you heard from Chelsea Rochman that she had participated in a science symposium in November 2018 that we hosted alongside our colleagues at Health Canada. We also had a best brains exchange to bring together the best available expertise from around the world to identify where there are potential gaps and areas of focus in order to help us in identifying where we need to focus more research and in getting a very clear sense of the state of science.
A significant milestone in that process was the symposium and the best brains exchange. We are continuing to work on that. In my previous testimony, I did note that we're hoping to have the research agenda ready by June, so we're making good progress.
