00:30The ICI commissioners were able to ask me many questions, and I was able to answer it.
00:38I'm ready to come back to the commission anytime I'm invited, so if I can share more information, I will do so.

00:50Sir, you wanted to release your SAL-EN?
00:52I will do it at the instance of the commission.

01:05He adds he is willing to do anything that will help speed up the investigation.
