Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Perhaps I could help Mr. Morrissey. In the government's response to a recent Order Paper question, in terms of the education level of those in the department who are DG level and above, Mr. Morrissey, only one of the 62 has a marine biology degree—an undergraduate, I believe.

I believe Dr. McPherson's is in oceanography. Is that correct?
