Thank you, Chair.

Thank you to our witnesses.

For the first question, I'll go to you, Ms. Restoule. You had great comments, and I appreciate the testimony.

Let's talk about the oversight committee. Do you feel it's very independent right now in the way that it's set up by the way the bill is currently written and how the first group gets appointed, which sets the stage for future groups?
