Mr. Speaker, the mandate of this government is for the cabinet to try to put into place the issues that have been put before us and is to get this government into a position where people feel that it is accessible and that the programs and policies are delivered as close to the people as possible. These documents that are presently in front of you are the outline and the broad objectives of what has to be done in terms of putting together that process. It was highly technical in trying to translate what has come out of other papers, other initiatives, as well as Strength at Two Levels, on what can be done or what we can possibly achieve in certain time frames, looking at the government as a whole and what is possible.
So I did not believe that in setting up this technical way of dealing with things it was possible and desirable for the Members to be involved at the time. The mandate was given to us to structure a process where we can deal with those issues and goals and objectives, and this is what we did. This is just the background, and now the work has to be done. That is where I assumed that the Members wanted to be involved, in actually doing the work, not designing the technical nature of the boxes on where we are going to go. Thank you.
