Thank you to the witnesses for being here.

I'd like to direct my first question to Ms. Garland and Mr. Siebrasse to expand a bit further. Both of you have mentioned being in favour of patent term extensions. Can you fill in a little of the background as to how you see that as beneficial to a patent regime?

I'll start with you, Ms. Garland.
