Thank you for the question.
There are two types of research. One is on the efficiency and effectiveness of the current program, but there is another type that was alluded to, which looks at the demand for that program. Every time these questions are brought before this committee or other fora, we are basically trading rumours, because we don't really know what the demand is, and it's very hard to put our finger on it. I know that the Air India commission, for instance, tried and did well but had a lot of difficulty getting information on this particular issue.
So research is absolutely important. Of course, you would expect an academic to tell you that, but this is one case in which research has real, practical applications that will support the integrity and efficiency of the program. So that's the kind of research I'm really advocating.
