In addition to what Mr. Wild has said, my branch provides a couple of types of services. First of all, we have a coordinator who sits to make sure that there is a cohesion to the activities and to the overall stewardship and comptrollership practices of the commission. Mark's people work closely with commission staff to make sure that all the laws, guidelines, and directives are followed. I spend some time every week signing off where the delegations require my level of authority. I can assure you that, as I go through all of the packages, the work is done very well. It's checked. There's a great deal of scrutiny brought to bear, even down to whether the meal allowances claimed are accurate or not.
