Madam Speaker, I would like to thank the minister for his speech. I listened to it carefully. I have two questions and observations for him. First, we saw in the last budget that his government is continuing to invest in the oil industry. Does he really believe that these industries are in genuine need of help, when other people have much more need for government support than they do? Second, he talked about documents this morning, but the reality is that the following was sent to the Parliamentary Budget Officer: “The data the Department is providing contains unpublished information. As such, I request you to ensure that this information is used for your office's internal purposes only and is not published or further distributed”. On such a crucial issue, what information was not in the public's interest to know? Why wait until this morning to release the documents?
