It's true that my mandate, my five-year appointment, will be up in March 2013. There is a process in the act that deals with replacing the Parliamentary Budget Officer, or finding a new candidate. It's also possible that I could seek an additional term.
The Parliamentary Librarian and the deputy head of the Library of Parliament, where I work, put together a process. Three names are advanced, effectively, to the Governor in Council, and then a choice is made. That is the process that is going on. There have been some discussions with the Parliamentary Librarian to start that process. I'm not aware that it's officially started at this time.
