Thank you, Madam Chair, for the question.

Indeed, it certainly was our hope to have it open by the end of last year. Due to some technical difficulties, as well as certainly other priorities, such as COVID-19 measures, we have been quite busy over the last few months. We hope to have that in place very soon, but we were not able to open it by the end of last year as was my hope.
