Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, when the government first undertook the community transfers and community empowerment, there were discussions with the Union of Northern Workers that represented a majority of the employees. There is an understanding that employees who transferred over get at least comparable pay and benefits. Municipalities, of course, do have the option of providing more and in some cases they do, but certainly it is nothing less then expected that an employee would receive as a matter of transferring over.
