Mr. Chairman, the Department of Renewable Resources has submitted to the Financial Management Board terms of reference for a review of its Fire Management Policy and program. The terms of reference were approved by F.M.B. in November, Mr. Chairman, and focus specifically on what changes are needed to increase the proportion of local labour versus equipment, where aircraft are required, to increase the use of local air carriers, and to become less reliant on the larger water fire retardant aircraft. The review is underway and it is due to be reported back to us by May 31 of next year, so the department is looking at this aspect of fire fighting. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
