The second thing I would note is that typically when the secretariat approaches these funding proposals, in our analysis we look across a broad cross-section of government organizations, making allowances for difference in mandate, etc., to determine what are the trends, who are the outliers, what are the emerging issues. It's within that broad scope that is available to us because we look at so many that we're able to make a recommendation that can be nuanced by the knowledge of those broad trends.
I would worry a little bit about the panel being asked to make recommendations on a subset in which perhaps those cross-sectional issues would not be as apparent to you. You would want to be aware of those if you were taking on a toothier function. It can be very important to know what the broad trends are, and certainly those trends could be analyzed for you and brought to your attention and you would not necessarily be working in a vacuum. That's why I'm saying you would want to be certain the supports were in place before you took on that role, because you would want to exercise it with all the right technical backing.
