Let me say that I'm really interested in how we time the presenting of the main estimates to this committee and therefore to Parliament, and how we coordinate that with the budget timing. I think we're all dancing around the same thing, but I'll just say it and put it on the record. It's all out of whack right now. That's the way I look at it.
If it makes you feel better—I know you're frustrated with it—it's frustrating for us too, because we're trying to deliver timely and accurate information and we've got the cart before the horse on some of this. So by the Standing Orders and by other rules that I cannot in any way resile from, here I was a few days ago presenting the main estimates, three weeks before the budget. The main estimates are a valuable tool for having the baseline, but as we're all saying, it's going to be changed by the budget in some manner or another. I think it is important for us that we get this looked at.
The supply cycle itself is in legislation. It's not just the Standing Orders, as Michelle reminded me, but it does have parliamentary procedure in it as well.
So it's a combination of things that I'm really looking forward to you looking at, and I guess I'm expressing my interest in presenting to our fellow parliamentarians and to the government some solutions. I think that would be very useful.
