Subcommittee and other governmental bodies as well as gm am in third the review and reinforcement of delphis Safety Policies and procedures. My first point, i would like to provide some information pertaining to delphi postured a reduction of Replacement Parts for General Motors. The vehicles that were recalled were not in production several years ago. As a result it has been a Monument Task to build over 2 million switches in a matter of months. We have installed three new production lines and trained additional workers. At this time we have shipped over one million new switches and were on track to deliver more than 2 million switches by the end of august. We have done all this so that consumers can have their vehicles repaired by General Motors as quickly as possible. A second point is that delphi fully supports the subcommittees efforts as well as those of the house energy and Commerce Committee and other governmental bodies. Our support has included conducting an exhaustive review
That. I can certainly do a better job of explaining how we make decisions. I agree. I think so many people have so much information or distractions, the idea role of the media is not one that interest people. I think we are much more interested in the topic than anyone else.

Bauer earlier, its someone elses job to make sure that those products work in total harmony when they come together. Back ande gone understood our role in that. Ofhink the new legislation how Safety Systems interact from , and we perspective will work diligently with General Motors over this issue. In 2006 gm authorized a changed in the ignition switch but did not change the part number. As a supplier, is it a common practice for delphi to allow him a new factor to change apart and not change the part number . About 120,000had engineering changes and only about 40 of those actually had a part number change, so its quite normal not to change the part number. Do you allow the manufacturer to do the same thing . Yes. My time has expired. Thank you very much. Thank you, madam chairman. Report, when your did the legal team know about this problem . Back tonk
