Mr. Speaker, as I mentioned before, and I will go through them again, the consultants were asked to look at a number of issues of public interest. One is security of supply. Second is quality and reliability of service, cost of service, affordability of rates, responsiveness to client needs, adaptability to changing service conditions, and return on public investment. More specifically to the question, we did not give the consultants specific options to look at. They were given broad terms of reference. They were given some guiding questions to be considered, but we did not say, look at this option versus this option. These people are experts in the business with much more expertise than we have, and we trust that in responding to the terms of reference, they will look at any options that they feel are viable within these terms. Again, I mentioned that these terms of reference were circulated to all of the Members on September 18th. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
