I have some questions on the situation with the Petten reactor in the Netherlands. Today the minister announced—and we heard it in committee the other day—that the Dutch have indicated they could increase their production of isotopes by 50%. As I understand it, the NRU at Chalk River has been producing approximately 40% of the world's isotopes. The Petten reactor has produced about 30%. If they increase by 50%, that would be 15% to replace the 40% that's gone, roughly.
