Okay. I definitely had some difficulties with the first paragraph. I really don't think it is this committee's role to conduct pre-budget consultations, so I did have some big concerns about that. I know the proposed amendment has changed that somewhat, but I really feel it is up to the finance committee to do those pre-budget consultations. I think they should be done, but it's the finance committee's role.
I really didn't have a whole lot of problem with the second paragraph. If it is done as in the proposed amendment, with consultation with experts, I think that's what this has been all about for us, trying to determine how it can be evaluated. So I don't have a problem with that. The experts may be our analysts who are providing expertise. We haven't got that far yet.
I think leaving it as “experts” leaves that discussion open. We are going to determine that before we're done, I'm quite sure.
