I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. The minister spoke to me about this question and indicated that he could not provide an answer because the member was not able to specify a time frame for the information he was requesting. It is difficult to know whether the question relates to the past 12 months, two years, 10 years or whatever. He asked if the member could please ask the question again and include a time frame.
