This is the total amount for the entire initiative that I mentioned in my opening statement. The amount of $11,620,963 is for the eight items I mentioned: the Cohen commission, Mr. Elcock, and all the rest. Those initiatives combined give a net total of $11,620,963.

The Chair NDP Pat Martin

That concludes your time. Thank you very much.

I think that's it for questioners, so I'd like to thank our witnesses from the Privy Council Office for a very useful and informative session. Thank you, gentlemen.

Upon that, we will adjourn.
