I do not understand what his point was. So you are telling me that it is 12 years old, it is not redundant, it is a policy of the government. All I am saying is, if you are not following that policy, now he quotes from the policy, are you following that policy? If you are not following that policy then what policy are we following as a government, so that when I go to look at privatization you can say, yes, Mr. Picco, turn to page 3 and it will explain why we are privatizing property management, how we are doing the POL initiative and then the guidelines that have to be followed, or for any other privatization issues that are coming up. That is all that my question is. If you want to quote from the policy then, and that is the only one that is on the books, and I understand from some advice that I have, is that if the policy is on the books, then you follow it. If not, if it is out, then that is it. So, my final question is again, can the Minister furnish a written policy on privatization initiatives of this government as I have requested now in four supplementary questions. If not, when can they get it for us to see and if they do not have one, when are they going to write one?
