I don't think I really got an answer.
But we do hope, Mr. Chair, when that information becomes available, it will be forwarded to this committee forthwith.
While I'm on procurement, I want to turn to the Irving shipyards just for a minute. One of the concerns I've heard raised there is regarding the private sector, and especially Irving Shipbuilding themselves. As you can see when you're on the water side of Harrington Street there, or Burlington Street, I guess it is, they've made a tremendous, multi-million dollar investment—hundreds of millions of dollars of investment—and they still are. One of the concerns is the stability of the funding going forward as government's financial situation changes and the commitment—and this is just an example—of say $100 million a year gets cut back. That affects very seriously the investment of the private company.
Can you assure us that the funding that has been committed on an annual basis going forward is secure and will remain in place? They have to tool up, they have to hire the skilled labour, and they need that assurance, I'm sure.
