To refer to the example that was given, I'd simply say that, before putting on the roof, we'd build the foundation. I think that universities must first have the ability to act. They must have the ability to attract good professors, to pay them properly, to have the necessary infrastructure and so on. Ultimately, we need properly subsidized universities so that we can then conduct research. So I'd say that the first priority is the one stated in the brief, the transfer for postsecondary education.
