Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The only response I would make at this time, is that the honourable member has had approximately a couple of hours, since I made my statement, and I am sure that he would be more than happy to give me the time to take a look at that, and I will respond at a later time, if I may. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
