Mr. Speaker, I would like to advise the honourable Member that the topic of fire breaks has been under active discussions for over two weeks. We are looking at preventative measures. The Ministers responsible have gotten together to see how that can be accomplished. Given that the suggestion is appropriate at this time and that, although some communities do have fire breaks, there could be better use of this preventative measure, they have been discussing it. The Ministers responsible have decided to take measures to decide things like how much it would cost, how it can be done, and for the particular communities, where it is needed. I'm pleased to be able to say that this measure has been adequately discussed. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
