Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I know there are a considerable number of complaints with respect to the turnaround time on an appeal which has gone in. I am not sure there is a consistent turnaround time, if that is the correct term. In some cases, depending upon the complexity of the complaint, it could be as much as one year, and in some cases it may be 30 days. I do admit that we should be turning around these complaints a little more expeditiously. I have asked the department to look at why it is taking so long in some cases. I cannot really categorically say this is happening this way. Again, as I said, it depends upon the complexity of the complaint. The board should be striving to move as quickly as they can on these issues because they are important. I have asked the deputy and I will be meeting with the board to express my concern with respect to turnaround time on these issues.
