And I expect the same courtesy in return for all of the members who are on this day. We are all passionate about the work that we do and the positions that we hold, but with that in mind, we will conduct this meeting in a professional and respectable uh manner. So for each of the committee, for each case before the committee, we will allow the applicant to present their proposal.
