Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Shugart, very quickly—in 30 seconds or less—I want to get this clear. In 2002 our government created the federal house in order initiative. In 2007, you said, it was sunsetted, because effectively it was a five-year funding envelope and it sunsetted.
I understand that the federal house in order initiative called upon departments to agree to collectively reduce emissions from their buildings and vehicles by 31% from 1990 levels by 2010. I recall it because I think I had a hand in a previous life in crafting that standard. By 2002 the departments had reduced their emissions by 24%.
Along comes March 2007, and the government winds up or kills it—whatever—along with a whole series of other programs, such as the commercial buildings retrofit program, for example, which was meeting with huge success in the commercial sector.
Just very quickly, do you have any evidence you could table with us here today that was presented to the government side to justify winding up this program? Was it based on evidence?
