Thank you, Mr. Speaker and thank you colleagues. I would like to refer to that kind of consultation as the politics of inclusion and yet, when these items became public knowledge several weeks back, there was little if any attempt to explain what was happening and put them in context of where we've been or where we are going. Granted, it is everyone or anyone's right to disagree or argue about any government policy or direction and even seek to change it if they have a better idea. But, in fairness to the people who are often left to speculate or draw their own conclusion about what this government is up to, I would like to see a more proactive effort in communicating broad strategic directions by this government. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
