Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This is a further supplementary to the same Minister. These serious concerns continue with the process of negotiations here and the department officials seem to be unwilling to bend on the line haul rates. I recognize that there has been some compromise on other issues at the table. According to the industry sources those issues tend to be the minor ones in the business. The big issue is the line haul rates. Is the Minister willing to provide specific direction to his officials to adjust their position on the line haul rates and to enter into negotiations?
