Welcome, Mr. Ware and Mr. Roche.
From our perspective, it's very important that this be seen as a non-partisan initiative. I think the fact that both the Senate and the House passed this motion unanimously is a good sign, but the key is the next administrative steps that we can take.
My first question is for Mr. Roche, and then I'll have a question for Mr. Ware.
Mr. Roche, I wonder if you could tell us, have you had any discussions with officials in the Department of Foreign Affairs, in the disarmament division and elsewhere? Can you tell us if there was any take-up from those officials with respect to moving forward in this way?
