Mr. Chairman, I don't believe that we can recover these costs. The costs include casual staff for court security of $30,000; security equipment; court security, $6,000; facility rentals, because the other space is not large enough, $14,000, travel for witnesses and jurors, $120,000; juror fees, which is a legal requirement, $50,000; and, witness' fees, legal requirement again, $30,000. Unless the Minister of Justice has more information, I don't believe we can recover these funds from the federal government, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.
