Thank you very much, and as the member of Parliament for Kelowna—Lake Country, it's good to have the western wisdom bestowed upon our committee here, so I thank you, Mr. Good.
A couple of the comments you made alluded to our trying to control the public purse, and all of us are still trying to find that. So I want to take a couple of your comments a little further.
Making the PBO a full agent of Parliament was one of the thoughts you mentioned in your opening comments. In no particular order, here are my comments on that.
The PBO's role right now is broader, but what do you think of the idea of having the PBO report to the government operations committee and having a more focused scope for the PBO, so we could almost work in a parallel process? That would provide this committee with more resources to have a more thorough, in-depth view and, as you said, permanent committee oversight of the budget process.
