Thank you, Madam Chair. I guess I will build onto this. I look at the procurement guidelines, and it appears that the Department of Finance doesn't really seem to have an opinion on this in the procurement guidelines. They are worried about the financial side. If you guys decide you want to construct something that way, they'll go put the contracts together. I don't see a prohibition against Infrastructure creating a preference to design-bid-builds.
I also don't see anything in the procurement guidelines that would prohibit the Department of Infrastructure from creating a policy that sets out how we break down smaller contracts. Whenever a department comes to you with, say, "Did you go out and consult and talk to the labour pool in that community and what they have," and then make that the contract that then goes to Finance. I recognize that the procurement review is happening, and people have been saying that for years, but it's really you, as the Minister, who could grab one of your policies, of which I'm sure there's a bunch I have never seen and can't find, and change a couple of lines in them to reflect that.
I guess I would ask the Minister: would you also be willing to find wording that reflects this principle that we want to break up procurement contracts to reflect what a community can actually bid on? Thank you, Madam Chair.
