Thank you.
We're going to share our time, so I'm going to get three questions out and then I'm going to ask you to respond, because I know I'm going to run out of time.
If you look on page 24, there's a chart on the number of invention disclosures and the expenditures from 2003 to 2006.
So to Fisheries, Ms. Dansereau, you've only got one invention, yet an expenditure of $274 million in R and D spending. I don't know what the value of that one invention is, but your expenditure is greater than that of Health Canada, National Defence, and the Canada Space Agency, which have a greater number of inventions. The best return, of course, is at National Defence, with 18 inventions for only $229 million in expenditures. Would you comment on that.
Then, quickly, to Treasury Board or NRC, has a public servant ever made an invention and failed to disclose the invention or a patent? Has that ever happened, and what would be the penalties for something like that? Termination, I would suppose.
Finally, have there ever been any legal liabilities resulting from the improper management of the IP inventory? For instance, earlier in the chapter we mention that possible negative outcomes could be termination of contracts, contractors developing competitive products, inability to license IP to other departments, and inability to guarantee title.
I got three out.
