Thank you.
I think it's clear that there are definitely advantages in terms of establishing the coherence of the budget and estimates documents. Without a doubt, this lag time between the budget and estimates and how budget initiatives, whether cash or accrual, eventually find their way into the ultimate authorities document, which is the estimates, needs to be truncated.
We can't have budget initiatives that don't find their way into estimates for multiple estimates periods, so clear coherence with parliamentarians is a clear advantage. I think that means as part of the executive approvals process, we have to get much more of the budget initiatives to this substantive costing basis so that they're able to be included in the next available estimates, whether that's the main estimates or supplementary estimates, so that the spending plans is aligned, again whether it's cash or accrual, and there's clear coherence between the two documents. Absolutely.
I think that we're seeing paradigms like this in British Columbia and Ontario, where they have this clear coherence.
