I just want to sum up that we all agree that we need to travel even if Mr. Carrie was kind of so-so. I think depending on which option...you could manage that later on.

You did.
I was wondering if the researchers, just for the meeting, could bring information back, because we're really looking at things like the best access and cost. I don't know if the OECD has ranked different countries with regard to those aspects. That might give us a little bit of a perspective on it as well before we make a decision on it, if we are going to make a decision to travel.

I don't like this idea of splitting up. If one group goes to Japan, they will not know what works in the U.K. or Sweden. I don't think we'll be able to come to some kind of consensus. I don't like the idea of splitting up.

We don't have to decide this today.
Let's go home and think about this a little more. We'll have another discussion on the 8th about this. I'll just tell the liaison board tomorrow that we're contemplating some travel.
