Should we go to our witnesses online for this first, maybe? So, Mark and Lisa, I'm not sure if you heard—. Did you hear the question?

Carolyn, just before we go to the other witnesses, I think Laura wanted to come in on this point. And I should say—I was going to say later that we're very pleased to have Laura as a new member of the committee, and so this is going to be the first time that…
