It varies a great deal. Take Statistics Canada, for instance. That agency has a $600 million budget. We reviewed the situation with other officials and had discussions with the Chief Statistician who, along with others, identified possible areas in which cutbacks could be considered. That is one form of consultation.
Take for instance the Canadian Intellectual Property Office or CIPO. At one point, a $50 million surplus was identified in their financial statements. Discussion is ongoing. At the same time, we continue to pursue a number of other initiatives. Yesterday, we tabled what could be considered the department's financial statements. While we did that, we discussed budget cuts. There is no specific starting point, it is an ongoing process.
