Thank you, Mr. Chairman. One of my concerns is that this is an area that seems to be a bit of a runaway train. It feeds on itself continually. I am just not convinced that we’re getting the best use out of this technology that we can. I see it’s up 17 percent this year roughly and I think we’re trying to keep our departmental increases to about 3.5 percent. This one continually outperforms just about all of the departments. I’m wondering if the department has thought of putting a cap somehow on this sort of thing or if the departments have to stay within a three-year running average of a 3 or 4 percent growth or something like this. We deal with these big ticket items continually and this seems to feed into that. I’d just like to throw that out there for any perspectives the Minister might have.
