Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the department, when we gave out these privatizations throughout the Northwest Territories, there are a number of different agencies throughout the Northwest Territories that provide that service on behalf of the government, and they receive a fee for it. The agency fee is, you mentioned $8.00. I think that is the agency fee. There is GST attached to it, but the government fee portion of it does not have the GST. That portion goes to the Department of Transportation and goes into general revenue. However, all this different data that is collected goes back to the motor vehicles' area, and they data enter it so that we keep it in our general records. So there is some work within the motor vehicles' area besides the actual issuing of the licences. There is still some PY's that are still in the motor vehicles department that are doing the work of making sure that everything is recorded and everything is registered so that we have a complete computer system there that keeps track of everything. So this fee here, yes it goes back to general revenue, but at the same time we still have a function in motor vehicles division that is keeping track of all this different data.
