Thank you, Madam Chair. I wish the Speaker and the Clerk's office well in the negotiations or the discussions with Human Resources because it is imperative that Members on this side of the House have the opportunity and ability to attract and retain a research staff that is comparable to what a researcher or analyst inside a department would be remunerated at. It's obvious; I mean we have to be as well prepared as our colleagues across the floor when it comes to getting information to us at our disposal so we can use it here in the House. Again, I want to wish the Speaker well on that.

One of the other things in the office of the Clerk, I just wanted to touch on this for a second, I think we've added a public affairs officer. It's not a new position, but that has been a tremendous help to Members as well. Again, I wanted to mention that that office has been a really big help to me individually and I know other Members. Attracting that person to that position was a very good move on the part of the Clerk's office. So again, I wanted to say thank you for that too. Thank you.
