Thank you, Mr. Chairman. For a while there I thought my honourable colleague from Nunakput was corrupted by Cabinet. Mr. Chairman, I apologize for that remark. It is unbecoming of me. I am sorry. Mr. Chairman, maybe the Minister can help clear the air surrounding RFPs because there seems to be a link. When an RFP goes out, there is not a definite criteria to be met, it seems. Once an RFP is selected, it is not guaranteed that the price brought forward is the one because there is a bit of negotiation back and forth to finalize the process. Maybe, the Minister can clear this up by saying is there a connection between RFPs and can they be considered in partial at least as a negotiated contract because there is some work or is the price that is given at the time of the RFP, is that the price that is selected? Is the price firm once the RFP is accepted?
