Marianne, I take it this meeting will be camera since it is legal, and if so, why is this not in the notice of meeting?
Whatever, will there be a public information component?

The agenda for the meeting itself will record that the item is confidential. I don’t know why that wasn’t stated in the press release. At this point in time, I do not know whether there will be a public component to the meeting. I expect at some point after the meeting, if not immediately when we come out of camera then shortly thereafter, there will be some information provided to the public.
