Thank you, Mr. Chair. I agree that we do need to put a limit on it to be looking after the taxpayers’ dollar here and it’s a good debate on where that limit is. I just want to bounce off my impression of what’s happened here. Had the travel been first class I suspect we probably would have used that $50,000 and I believe the rules would allow first class travel here. So I’m seeing quite a good effort on behalf of all those travelling, to minimize the impact on the public purse and reduce those costs by 50 percent, perhaps more. So I just want to acknowledge that and encourage that whenever those of us travelling are young enough and healthy enough to be able to stand the rigours of regular travel that our public mostly uses. So would that be an accurate statement I guess is the question for the Minister and was it budgeted perhaps on first class or business class? Thank you.
