Minister, once again, thank you for coming here today and for spending a little bit more time than you'd originally budgeted for.
To the committee, as I've said before and will say again for the record, I think this is an extremely, extremely important study that we're about to commence, for no other reason than this. Again I will go back to my 12 years' experience here and say that if we can get this right—and I think, Minister, you are on the right track—it would finally, and I mean finally, after generations, give the responsibility and the authority for the expenditures of monies away from the public service and into the hands of the parliamentarians. As far as I was concerned when I was first elected, that's what we were here to do.
Once again, thank you for your efforts. We will hopefully see you once again. You said you've made about 12 appearances. Hopefully you won't mind making it a baker's dozen if we invite you back here again sometime in the near future.
Thanks once again. We will suspend.
