How long has that threshold been in place? Has it been in there for a long time? And when can we open up or should we open up the agreement on international trade to change these kinds of things?
It seems to me that if you have to go to a competitive process for something that's $50,000, you can't buy much for $50,000 any more and you start up this whole process. I'm just wondering whether anybody has looked at the cost-benefit analysis of changing those thresholds, because while the competitive process can save you a lot of money on large purchases, it can also cost you quite a bit of money on small purchases or light purchases.
I'm just wondering, from your perspective, Minister, whether or not that's something that should be looked at.
