001for M. Rusco. Um, I am not entirely sure. Wouldn't she have to take a leave of absence from her current position before commencing on July 1st? May I? Yes. Uh, if I may. Yes, sure. communicated with uh Douglas on this issue and he said that there's two ways that we could do it. One is a leave of absence and the other is um just simply to state that I would be um appointed with this uh with additional compensation. So, and so he uh drafted up uh a contract with that statement with that information. So, there's two ways that it can be done. So I I know our the the practice has always been that we do leave of absence. So I think if we can carry on um what the protocol is that we've been
