Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

I will just to add to what has been said by my colleagues, who are much more knowledgeable. Of course, there is a definition of independent remanufacturers in the agreement itself, under annex 7C. There is a certification process under way for obtaining that status; it is voluntary, but it is under way. Those are the steps currently being taken. Of course, I defer to my CRA colleagues with respect to the actual implementation.

Thanks very much.
