Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to the minister for being here today. Of course, I have more questions than I will be able to get through in six minutes, but luckily I go last and some of my questions have been asked already.

I just want to get a little more detail about ODA, and I'm sure that won't surprise you at all, Minister. Could you tell me what the expectation is for the percentage of GNI that we'll be spending? Is it 0.27% ?

What will that increased percentage be? I don't want to know the volume of ODA; I would prefer to know the percentage.
