I'd like to start off by thanking AECL for giving me the opportunity of seeing this mock-up firsthand. It truly underscores the importance of having the background and the precursor to the NRU, the NRX, to experiment on before doing it on the real, live thing.
My only regret concerning that visit was that the rest of the committee was not able to be there. The only way to truly understand what's going on and to appreciate what the employees there have been doing around the clock is to see it firsthand.
I know you've suggested that we go to the website and look at the videos, but could you elaborate on the instrumentation that has been designed thus far? It not only has to fit through a small hole down three storeys, where there are projections coming up and across, and circumnavigate the vessel, but it also has to be in unison with a camera, because it has to be done remotely, and be resistant to radioactivity.
How are we doing in that process?
