Mr. Chair, we have launched ourselves into an integrated community energy systems study. It would seem to me perfectly appropriate for us to continue that study. We have witnesses lined up. The clerk has done an excellent job of filling the calendar with people like the ones we were supposed to hear from today, so it seems rather odd that the opposition is trying to derail a study that they already agreed to, as regards what we're currently doing.
All I can make of this is that it is an attempt for further fearmongering on the part of the opposition when we know that is simply not the case. We had representatives from AECL tell us very clearly that there is no reason to be concerned, Mr. Regan. They said very clearly that there is no risk to the public.
I'm not sure what angle they're trying to tease out of these officials—they would be, of course, the ones to speak to again—or what value there would be for taxpayers if our current study were derailed. Can they answer that question?
