The Chair Liberal Bryan May

Ladies and gentlemen, this has been very educational. I thank all of you sincerely for attending this committee session today. We have eight more sessions on the seniors study. I really thank you all for getting us off on the right foot. I definitely learned a lot today, and I hope my colleagues concur. Again, thank you all very much.

As always, thank you to our folks in the booth; our technical people, who made it possible to see and hear you today; and the folks on either side of me who help us put this report together.

The meeting is adjourned.
