</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">I do not want to get into debate here. I think we all agree that there’s an investigation that will come out with an outcome. And that based on that outcome some actions will be expected to be taken. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">As we await for that outcome we need to appreciate that we have an organization that I still 100% appreciate what they do every day and also appreciate just like any ISO system appreciates that in any perfect systems every now and
then we must expect some non conformity. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">When that happens we fix and mitigate repetition. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">I’m sure thats what I meant to say sorry you read it differently. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">I also appreciate your version of the reality </div>
