It would have been helpful for me as chairman of this committee to have an overall briefing just to begin things—we have a number of new members on the committee—and just to get a sense of the department and who they are. But before we prolong this, I should say that in the absence of that suggestion, it would occur to me that the next order of business for the committee would be establishing an agenda for subsequent meetings. That's certainly something we could do on Tuesday. If it is decided on Tuesday that in addition to setting the agenda up to Christmas or something like that, we could include a subsequent briefing by officials—I mean quite broadly, rather than a specific one—to update new members of the committee, it may well be that the committee might have the advantage of even just the new members who would depart from the committee time to get such a briefing, but those are just suggestions.
Go ahead, Monsieur Cardin.
