Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It's good to see you all again.
I don't have a new line of questioning; I covered everything I was interested in last time. I have one follow-up, though, that I didn't get to ask last time.
It's on the supplementary estimates. We've talked about it a lot here, and that's good. Based on the answers I heard, I would expect there would be similar trend lines in the larger provincial economies in terms of the increase of supplementaries, and also in other Commonwealth countries. Again, their budgets are getting larger, and much the same pressures are on them. Do we see similar trend lines to confirm that we've identified the systemic problem and we're addressing it? Otherwise, if it's not happening in other parliamentary systems, then you have to wonder whether we have a unique problem and we need to dig a little further.
