Science and Research committee  Yes, of course. Thank you for your question. It is a technology that we are developing. It is new. It is innovation that we're developing here in Canada. A lot of the work we're doing to validate it is going on, as I said, in the Canadian Nuclear Laboratories, to verify the scie

Science and Research committee  The fundamental science was based on experiments done across the U.S. laboratories over the last 20 to 30 years. We have taken that existing knowledge, amended it specifically for CANDU spent fuel, and made our own changes. We have our own patents filed to improve the process.

Science and Research committee  Yes. Some of the smaller SMR projects are exempt under that licence. We have two megaprojects—the waste recycling facility and the reactor—so we're firmly in that and it is a challenge. It seems to be a very long process. The steps in it make sense and are required, but it's a lo

Science and Research committee  Certainly. First of all, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission is probably one of the highest-regarded regulators in the world. It's their regulatory regime, which is robust and open to innovation, that is appealing to innovative, new and safer technologies. The one I am referr

Science and Research committee  Thank you, Madam Chair and members of the committee, for the opportunity to appear—

Science and Research committee  I'll try the headset and do a final test. Is this okay?

Science and Research committee  Thank you for the opportunity to appear today. I’m coming to you from Saint John, New Brunswick, which is the traditional, unceded territory of the Wolastoqiyik, Mi’kmaq and Peskotomuhkati peoples. I’m Rory O’Sullivan, CEO for North America at Moltex Energy. Moltex is developin
