I want to thank our witnesses for coming to the committee today.
Mr. Von Mirbach, in your presentation, you are more or less advocating the precautionary principle. You said we do not have the required knowledge for resource development. If I understood you well, we need to develop this expertise before we start drilling.
I will now go directly to the issue of agency management.
When we talk about safety and emergency response, something that often comes up is the CNSC's relief valve capability requirement. Do you see this as an essential tool in emergency response? What would be some of the consequences of removing this requirement?
