Thank you very much and thank you to all of the witnesses for being here today.
My first few questions are for Dr. Wark.
You illustrated the timeline of the purchase of Neo Lithium, which was made public in early October 2021. In your remarks, you mentioned that a protracted period of political transition may have played a role in the acquisition not getting the needed scrutiny. By this, are you referring to the recent snap election? Is that what you're referring to in that comment?
