Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Dr. McDiarmid. We appreciate very much your expertise. We are hoping that you can shed some light because we have heard some contradictory things from witnesses, particularly from the veterans who have been so impacted with regard to negative health outcomes.
One of the things I wanted to ask you about was non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We had a veteran last week who is dying from this form of cancer, and he talked about a Royal Society report he said cited that the greatest exposure to radiation resulting from DU was inhaled depleted uranium particles.
You have talked about embedded uranium with regard to shrapnel. Have you looked at all at the possibility that there was exposure through inhalation that would have perhaps caused this cancer for a number of victims?
