Yes, but again to be honest, I compliment the government on saying that they are open to amendments. I'm somebody who's been in the financial community since around 1980 and it's rare to see governments open to amendments on budget implementation bills. So that by itself I find is a positive. Would more consultation help bring consensus around this committee on what kind of parliamentary budget officer you want now and in the future? I think it will.
