The panel was reconstituted this past fall. It had been established for the first time in the fall of 2005. We were supposed to appear, but then with Parliament dissolving for the election, we didn't appear. It was reconstituted this past fall, and we met with them in November. I believe we were the first parliamentary officer to appear before them.
What is interesting about the process is that we present our funding request to them, and the Treasury Board Secretariat also presents its analysis, which is very unusual in the government system. The committee then makes a recommendation. It's an advisory committee to the Speaker of the House. They make a recommendation to the Speaker, who then transmits it to the President of the Treasury Board.
In this case we obviously still work with the Treasury Board Secretariat, who review our funding requests as they would for any government department. They agreed with the funding request we put in.
