Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My name is Jean-Frédéric Lafaille, and I am the Director General of the sector called the Atomic Energy of Canada Limited Restructuring.
Thank you for the question. I think the question was about how this funding would relate to the implementation of the government-owned, contractor-operated model.
I will make a distinction from the nuclear legacy liabilities program that's been implemented for a number of years, and this will carry on going forward as there is a long-term plan to remediate any nuclear waste that's been accumulated over the past decades. That will carry on, but going forward it will be delivered under a different model. That model has it that a private sector company will be selected to actually manage the operations of the nuclear laboratories going forward, including the management of the waste that is currently being managed by the nuclear laboratories at Chalk River Laboratories, in particular, but also Whiteshell Laboratories.
The funding is being provided on a one-year basis to carry on the activities and will be renewed going forward to make sure that these nuclear wastes are being remediated over the long term. Does that answer the question?
