Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I guess my concern is that if you see a drop in salaries, as Mr. France has indicated, that $3.5 million dollars is close to the figure that was an actual figure, so we are probably looking at close to a $500,000 drop in salaries for a year. There must be quite an increase in the number of positions being cut, and if one of the goals of this directorate is to help develop local governments, perhaps we could ask how the department intends to fulfil that mandate with that many fewer people?
