Thank you, Mr. Chair. Given the nature of the business that we are in, Mr. Chair, where we get together once a year to go over the $1 billion appropriations that are included in our budget this year, I think some of this work should have been done before. The deputy ministers should have got together before this budget session and come to some kind of realization that probably the best thing to do would be to allow employees to access the Internet to listen to the audio proceedings of this House. I think, by not doing that, we have let down a number of our employees that would take the opportunity and you could work and listen at the same time. We have the Internet in every government office across the land. I am sure people are on the Internet a fair bit, too. What is the difference? Why aren't we providing this service? To me, it is just something that should happen, Mr. Chair, and it shouldn't have to wait for another meeting of deputy ministers to get together to figure that out. I would like to see it happen immediately, if it could. Thank you.
