Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just so that I can be helpful to the honourable Member, we are presently assessing the need for a full-time inspector and the fact is it may show that we don't need one. But we are also assessing the whole matter and taking into account the volume of liquor, the number of licenses and the possibility of even expanding the role of the inspector. So we are taking that into consideration. I want to say that our target date for completion is March 31, 1994, so we may be able to respond.
I think the comments that you made are very constructive, and we will be as responsive as possible.
I must say that the only reason that special occasion permits are being issued out of the liquor warehouse is because, of course, the municipality gave up the responsibility of issuing those special occasion permits. Your advice about the inspector issuing them is certainly a good one.
We are also looking at the whole matter of establishing guidelines surrounding the whole matter of issuing special occasion permits, so that might also be very helpful to us. Mr. Chairman, I also have a copy of fees and qualifications for liquor licenses and permits that I would be prepared to give the honourable Member. It does say that special occasion permits, in the ordinary sense, are twenty dollars, and special occasion permits resale based on load occupancy, zero to 50 persons is twenty dollars, 51 to 150 persons is seventy dollars, 151 to 300 persons is one-hundred dollars and more than 300 persons is one-hundred and twenty dollars. So I would be prepared to give you that document.
