Mr. Chairman, the safety inspections for the Keewatin region were being performed out of Yellowknife on a time-available basis. The construction activity, population increases and need for safety inspections in the Keewatin have risen significantly and we feel that a position of this nature is required now in that region. I might point out that we also have been asked in this House about why it takes so long to get electrical inspections done, et cetera. We get the same kind of questions about safety and we feel there is enough work now in the Keewatin for a safety officer, and that would cut down on the amount of time it takes right now to deliver the service from Yellowknife, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.
