Thanks.
I appreciate the comment about the crossover. In my brief time of being a member of Parliament, I've often thought that different committees within the House, and Senate committees as well, could maybe learn a thing or two about duplication and crossovers, so I can appreciate your comments on that.
I have one other question. In light of the fact that you mentioned you do have a member from time to time at your meetings advising you or briefing you on policy or casework, do you feel within your advisory committee or group that you have autonomy, that your group is autonomous? Other than the one suggestion about rewriting it or doing a new one, have you ever felt pressure to appeal or appease the Department of Veterans Affairs in anything you have tracked down?
