Thank you, Ms. Ross.

Thank you to our witnesses today for our discussion on this particular item.

You're the last set of witnesses that we have scheduled. We will talk about our report when it comes back to this committee, and then to the House of Commons.

I want to thank each one of you for taking the time and providing your expertise today.

We will suspend for a few minutes, because we are going in camera for directions on drafting the report.

With that, thank you very much.
