On the recordNovember 3, 2011
I yield myself such time as I may consume. The gentleman from New Jersey just brought something up. My friend from North Carolina is correct, and I misstated it. The intermediary is more or less the platform, the conduit. But one of its responsibilities, and this is found in 4A, section 10, is to outsource the cash management responsibilities to qualified third-party custodians such as broker-dealers or insured depository institutions, which was a concern that we were all--we all had during the committee hearing is, ``Okay. Who's holding the money? Can they be trusted? Will they release the money at the right time?'' which was what the gentleman from New Jersey was just talking about. So I thank my friend from North Carolina for reminding me of that section. Again, it's another piece of investor protection and a good idea that helps with capital formation. Again, we're trying to blend these two concepts. I would like to yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Al Green).
