Thank you, Madam Chair. Our present training programs for fire fighters and our programs for the purchase of fire fighting equipment do not include training for response to crash fires at airports. The training is directed at the suppression of structural fires, not fires that might occur when aircraft fires occur at the airport operations. The department is reviewing the matter with the Department of Transportation and will be developing a more comprehensive response of approaches that should be taken to deal with those kinds of situations in communities like Iqaluit. Thank you, Madam Chair.
