Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this is another very complicated and kind of an impossible task to determine. Again, the existing BIP companies fall under the current policy so they are BIPed. To differentiate them from other businesses to see if they're fronts for large southern corporations is an impossible task to do at this point in time. Through the extensive review that we did on the business incentive policy, the best way to really get a handle on it is to change the business incentive policy the way we proposed. I think there are six major changes in the proposed policy that we wanted to proceed with, and that would also deal with the issues that you're talking about. Thank you.
