I think PEARL is an example of what I would call a major research facility in the country, a unique facility that many scientists from different places in the country can use. We need to get our heads together and really have a strategy for major science infrastructure in the country. Actually, it's one of the recommendations of the fundamental science review, and that's one that I am certainly very eager to get on with. As a scientist and vice-president of research, I know how important this is, and we'll be looking into that.
