## Evidence gaps

- Independent educational and professional credential checks were not obtained.

- The broad web search is not comprehensive; named-employer and person-specific fraud, safety, environmental, legal and governance checks remain incomplete.

- Issuer biographies do not establish all earlier role dates or individual contributions to company-wide outcomes.

- The actual status and investigation outcomes of individual site incidents remain unverified, and the 2025 safety numbers cover pre- and post-appointment periods.
