Okay. Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
With my apologies, this has very little to do with any of the good things that our witness has to talk about. Again it's a question of our priorities here as a group.
We heard from Elizabeth Lower-Basch from the institute in Washington, D.C., who talked about social impact and pay for success. Her conclusion from the study she did was that when government enters into those agreements, it accomplishes a purpose that it would have accomplished more cheaply had it done this work itself. By the time you filled in the extra infrastructure costs for a private group to do this, and by the time you built in some kind of pay incentive or return on investment, her conclusion was that the government, if it wanted to accomplish the objective, would have done it more cheaply by proceeding directly.
I just wonder if you have a comment on that.
