Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, aerial photography and mapping of communities is used to provide a good basis for the development of communities for community planning, so that when new subdivisions, et cetera, are put in, that they are put in the right place. It provides a graphical way of showing how the land changes, the contouring, et cetera. We do air photography in all communities every second year, but the department is involved in digitizing this information with new technology, particularly with new satellite technology. We are going to be able to decrease our activity in this area and we are almost finished this phase of the process. In communities that are growing quickly, as many Members have pointed out, this is an important component of being able to have good surveying and good development in communities. Thank you.
