Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I appreciate the Minister's work on this to supply us with the information. Could the Minister tell us if he can provide the amounts given to each particular company? I believe that when the first batch of loans were announced the amount of the loans was associated and identified. The second batch that we were given I have been informed that we cannot receive the amount of the loans. I think it would be extremely helpful for all of us if we had the detail of how much each particular company was loaned. I know that there have been comments back to me that there is a certain amount of privacy involved with that but the way I look at this is we are dealing with, perhaps it is not government money in the clear sense of the word, but we are involved in ensuring that this is properly administered and properly allocated. I wonder if the Minister could look at this and if they cannot supply it, I would like to know some real reasons why we cannot get it.
