Mr. James Mitchell: I agree 1000% with what you've just said, sir. I and many other people welcome the creation of this committee, for example, because it does provide a parliamentary forum where these kinds of issues can be debated, considered, given prominence, put in the newspaper, and all that sort of thing. I don't mind telling you that over many years people like me, who've worked on public service issues in various dimensions, have been disappointed that there's not been greater public attention, greater public interest, often greater political interest, often greater parliamentary interest in these matters. So when this committee was created, a lot of people said, that's terrific, because it's a sign of parliamentary attention to something that is very important. So I couldn't agree more.
