I welcome the Minister. I would like to ask him about the assurances he gave to me and to this committee in respect of money messages the last time he was here, which was some months ago. He assured me that he would liaise with me the following week in respect of my Bill. He informed the committee that he would provide the criteria for the decisions he has made and would respond to various issues raised by the committee in relation to money messages. A number of months have passed. I understand the committee secretariat has been in contact with the Department. That information should have been provided out of respect to the secretariat and to the public commitment the Minister gave this committee. I ask him to ensure it is provided today, at the latest.
