Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would add that front-loading represented, potentially at least, a risk for the service providers, because essentially what they were being asked to do was to spend against their agreement at a rate that would not allow them to make it through the whole year if they did not get supplemental funding. The risk to them was whether they were going to get the supplemental funding later on, when the agreements started to be renegotiated. That was the risk they were all facing by front-loading, and some said they were not prepared to accept that risk.
