There was no activity. The Comptroller and Auditor General raises an interesting point. The committee asked that he provide a report on all the companies audited by his office in respect of the timeliness of the report. As he indicated, some of the companies audited by his office have subsidiaries which we did not ask him to examine. It is not good enough that the committee is informed of the position regarding the parent company if it has significant subsidiaries which have not been captured by our request to the Comptroller and Auditor General. Does the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General also audit the subsidiary companies?
