I am not too sure if the Minister does not know the question or he does not have the answer. The answer is pretty specific. Do we have people within the department that have engineering skills that can actually valuate or come up with a number that is specifically stated in a budget or in a report that comes from your department, so they can back up the numbers? It is no big deal. You as a Minister are responsible for your department and the people in your department. If you are not sure what your department is doing or what people are doing within your department, I think there is something wrong with the department. Can the Minister answer the question because they should have people within the department? It is big enough. We are spending $70 million. I would like to know how you justify the amounts that come out of this department.
