Mr. Chairman, my understanding was that when we manned the satellite detachments, the PYs were already in the main detachments, so there is no increase in PYs. So the salaries for these policemen in the satellite communities were already in their base. So I do not quite understand what the Minister is saying with regard to salaries, because it has already been in the main base of the RCMP budget. I do not think it is a question of salary money. Maybe it is just trying to fulfill those positions. But those communities that are without police are asking that they be reinstated right away. And maybe part of the reason was that they did not have enough in their base and this $1.1 million is to cover all the inflationary and volume costs. So the way I am reading this is that they should have been reinstated starting in the new year.
