Mr. Speaker, I am only the Minister of Justice. I cannot speak for the government, but I suggest again to the Member that the RCMP had agreed to continue processing and receiving applications. They are not interested in having cash in their offices, which they would have to be responsible for, and which they would accumulate and send in at the end of each month. I am not sure if that is the primary concern but, at the end of the month, someone has to add it all up, account for it and send it through the mail. I think they are suggesting keep it simple, when you apply make it in the form of a money order or a money draft and that simplifies the process for everyone. It is convenient for people who come in when they are required to send in their application fee, but it simplifies the process for the RCMP and for officials at this end of the line. Thank you.
