Thank you, Madam Chair. It seems to me I heard the Minister say, in answer to Ms. Lee, that he took the first opportunity to come before committee with this decision to waive the BIP on the project. I know that Cabinet was operating for a while after we left, and I would like to know what date Cabinet made the decision to be able to waive the BIP. I think that it's a move away from government policy and I think Members have a right to know when it was made and under what circumstances. We're all part of this government. When we're going to change government policy like that, I think everybody should be involved in it. So I would like to get that date, and I would also like to know, from the Minister, if the waiving of the BIP is only applicable to this one contract, or does the Housing Corporation now have the ability to put out contracts without applying the BIP in the future. Thank you, Madam Chair.
