If you're asking if there should be a comprehensive, coherent, long-range strategy that governments at all levels adhere to, absolutely. That only makes common sense. Is there the political will to achieve that? That becomes the issue and that becomes a political response. We would certainly support that kind of an initiative and that kind of a look into the future. We have to set targets. We have to know what the problems are. We have to plan for what we expect to evolve to as a society. Consequently, yes, I fully support that look ahead, that development of a strategy. I leave it up to the politicians to arrange how to do that.
