Mr. Chairman, I'm not clear what the Member is suggesting. The ministry, itself, is largely policy driven. It is a function that requires a full-time position tasked simply to look at policy and planning, doing required analysis of ongoing activities and following up on work done by the ministry. The director is in charge of general overall coordination within the directorate, specifically in charge of policy and coordination of the work of the ministry. The position of financial administrative coordinator...Again, there is $4 million we deal with. We also do a lot of work with FMBS and other departments. There's work to be done with the federal government, other ministries and communities. These positions are required.
