Thank you. Just on the matter of the Education Act, in particular vis-a-vis communications, there was a change in instructional hours that was negotiated between the Teachers' Association and the government. Now, that change needs to be reflected in legislation. However, that is coming late in the day to legislators, so are those kinds of realities being properly understood by the department, and are we going to catch those in the future? I think it is very important we remember the very important role that standing committees and elected officials play in reviewing legislation and ensuring that this legislation is the best possible legislation it can be, so is that properly envisioned by the work that policy, legislation, and communications is doing within the department? Thank you.
