That's a fellow chair of another committee. I do have respect for Mr. Wallace's point, and he does have a legitimate point of order. We gave one hour, approximately, for these witnesses, and there is no willingness on the part of the committee to keep them any further, even though there is obviously interest to continue questioning.
Having said that, we should remind ourselves as a committee, though, that as the oversight committee for Public Works and government operations, and government procurement generally, our primary concern should be fairness, good competition, and value for the taxpayer dollar invested. All of the questioning was along those lines, in the interest of fairness. The interest of fairness is one thing that we should still be concerned with.
In the current configuration for the next contract, which is all we're talking about here, will the party that both the Auditor General and the Supreme Court of Ontario has ruled has been agreed...will that party be allowed to compete and bid on this next contract, or will they be precluded because of the appeal that's under way?
Can you answer that one question?
