That's very good. Thank you for that.
Your committee's terms of reference in regard to the task you were asked to do were twofold: one, to review and summarize the public scientific evidence and literature on the human health effects of depleted uranium; and two, to assess the information concerning the potential exposure of Canadian military personnel to depleted uranium. Those were more or less the two points.
In conclusion 7, you state that many veterans are “suffering from persistent symptoms following deployment”, which “can cause considerable suffering and can be effectively treated”. Unlike the other committee's six conclusions, which relate directly to the scientific study, this seems to be a general statement of opinion that doesn't seem to come directly from the scientific literature you've reviewed. I'm just wondering why you or the committee thought that would be a seventh point to add in the conclusions of your report.
