Thank you for that.
My thought overall is that there isn't necessarily one winning recipe, and in many cases, we can take existing programs and probably adapt them to give them a bit more focus and perhaps some more emphasis on critical mineral supply chains. It's going to take a lot of legwork to work this out, and it's obviously not going to be solved in this one session.
However, I think everything has to be incentive-driven. Those incentives can take the form of tax incentives. They can take the form of research subsidies. Sometimes it's just a case of coordinating existing subsidies and wrapping them up into a package that makes them more accessible to companies that need to do it. I believe most of the tools are already there in the tool box, but there has to be effort put into coordinating everything and making it one sensible, strategic package for developing this industry.
In other words, we should be doing this with intent and deliberately. We should know exactly what we're aiming at before we start, before we embark on it, because that is what's going to attract investors and it's what's going to impress the end-users such as the automakers. If they decide that we have our act together, they might well follow suit and sign on with us.
