I'm going to comment on it. I don't... I think we can do that without asking the solicitor to do that. Uh I think we have a good friend that is involved with the MPO who could make that request uh to do so. Uh I think it's valid.

I believe that the solicitor's remarks have already been made in regards to the strength of what has to happen, the additional information, and it's on his advice that we're moving forward on this. So that is a matter of record now. The question is do we need him to to do that as well as the mayor to ask a question? Yes, Mr. Dr. Sudler.
