All of you, I assume, sit on departmental committees as well as this one. You look at departmental estimates there. You might ask yourselves when you're looking at the estimates—or get the committee to ask—if the votes are too big or too little, if the allotments are appropriate, if you understand what the government is doing, and if you feel that you have control over it from what you are presented with.
Just start somewhere there. I think it's a very useful question, and you can come up with a useful answer, but I think you people have to do some research on your own.
