Thank you very much, Ms. Ryan.
You said something I found very interesting. You said you'd be a one-term Parliamentary Budget Officer, that you would not be seeking a second term. That got me thinking.
You've spent a lot of time within the machinery of government, under many governments and different political parties. Your skills, loyalty and integrity were never questioned.
As the Parliamentary Budget Officer, you may be called upon to criticize government policies. Will you commit not to work for the federal government after your term?
