I don't know that it's possible to provide numbers until the system is chosen. If you look in that 5 myths about other countries thread, there are cost examples. Like 20% of costs on paperwork here contrasted with 4% in France. Can we acheive 4%? If we pick the French model it's possible. But no one can know what we can acheive if we go with a different model.
