It's difficult for me to answer, because in previous government reviews I was on the other side, so I was seeing everything. It's difficult to determine what was public and what was not public, but I remember.... I would be hard-pressed to say what was done in the past because I was on the dark side, so to speak, where I was advising ministers as to what to cut and what not to cut. My memory could play tricks on me as to what was publicly known and what wasn't.
