Could I intervene?

I'm sorry, I think we're getting some mixed signals over here on the government side. On the one hand, we're being told to expand access and make it applicable to a larger number of agencies. On the other hand, when you discuss the fact that we have done exactly that, you point out that it only causes the problems that are associated with ATI generally to be applicable to a larger number of agencies.

So what is the overriding recommendation--more access or less?
