Mr. Speaker. No, not necessarily. A request for proposals, as I explained yesterday, is when the government has a specific job that it wants done but does not have all the details on how it should be done. What we do is, we send a call letter out asking for proposals which is different from a public tender contract, where we know exactly what needs to be done. A request for proposals could be on construction management proposal.
