Thanks very much.
Thank you for these excellent presentations. It's quite remarkable that the progress is so fast. Obviously it started with the speech from the President or the directive from the President on his first day. I guess we have heard from a number of witnesses that this actually starts at the top, and it's difficult to create an open culture underneath if that's not the message coming from on high.
I would like to ask three things. First, in your statement of “releasing all we can and protecting what we must”, how is that determined, as to what has to be protected, and who makes that determination? It's quite clear from all of the testimony that in the United States the default position has now become “open”, so there must sometimes be some things that are determined that must be protected.
We've heard a little bit about how you've changed the culture of the normally risk-averse public service, to actually change it and transform it into one that embraces openness. I was wondering how you've done that. Is that incorporated in performance appraisals? How do you actually incent that kind of behaviour that's quite a change from the way they've probably operated for a great length of time?
Third, in having most things out and in the open, have you noticed any change in the need for staffing or the budget for access-to-information requests?
