As I suggested in my opening remarks, the request, the business case presented by the Office of the Auditor General, was duly considered. Due diligence was performed on each of the elements of the business case. Without providing too many specifics of the advice we provided to the Minister of Finance, there was a view that the office was on a growth track, that it had been growing around 15% since, I would say, the trough in its finding in 2015, and that it had been provided with a 10% increase in its resource base in budget 2018 and that it had some time to implement that increase. In a future period, additional funding requirements would be considered at that time.
