Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, my concern here is with the Bill or any type of legislation that provides for an exemption to the Financial Administration Act and the guarantees made by the Housing Corporation. Now I am wondering in the drafting of the legislation, did legal counsel or the Department of the Housing Corporation or the Housing Corporation itself, speak to any of the Auditor General's staff or anyone from the accounting field which would have given them any indication that, indeed, this would be standard accounting practices to exempt the Housing Corporation from the Financial Administration Act in regards to sections 86 and 87 of Bill 16?
