Yes. I will just make a comment based on what I understand here, and that is that we need to have almost a year's lead time to get something into the budgets. My comment is that I realize the government works slowly. I have been here long enough now to understand that, but I would really encourage the Finance Minister to look for ways to make budgeting more responsive to events as they unfold. I mean, okay, so this could not have reasonably been foreseen, but then later on we are going to talk about all of the utilities for the hospital. There seems to be a different threshold between what is urgent and what is not, and there seems to be a lot of leeway in what has to come through the regular business cycle and what just gets put in at the last minute because it's considered urgent. If she can rationalize this system so that we can better understand it, I think that would be very helpful. That is everything. Thank you.
