In terms of the changes to crime legislation, the only information we have received is public information, such as reports on plans and priorities and information from human resource plans. We don't have the methodology or the department's projections that would allow us to speculate, to do a good analysis and to determine whether the figures from Correctional Service Canada are reasonable. It must also be said that, when we look at the budget plan, there is no adjustment to provide for the changes to crime legislation, neither in the 2010 budget nor in the long-term economic and fiscal update. Lack of transparency is a major issue.
