on track I believe that it is now the right time for me to split my roles and
focus primarily on seeking out acquisitions and project investments in line with
our growth strategy.  Adrian has excellent credentials for the COO role and his
appointment to the EcoSecurities board will further strengthen our senior team
and help ensure we retain our position as one of the leading companies in the
