Thank you very kindly.
In closing, I would just state for the record the statement of our deputy minister, Mr. Guimont. I think it really says the substance of what this committee's responsibility is right now. You said: “In closing, I feel we are at a crossroads for setting a long-term path for the rehabilitation of the parliamentary precinct.” I couldn't agree with you more. But at the crossroads we need a sense of direction. Right now we're doing a shotgun approach to it, yet we have to have a rifle shot with a clear sense of direction. Certainly it would help you, I think it would help the Canadian taxpayer, and it will save time, effort, and money to get rid of some of the confusion going forward. I think we have to bear responsibility for that. Too many of our parliamentarians have sat on this and not acted, and I think we have a responsibility to do so. We thank you for your good work.
