Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I feel that is not sufficient. I may be moving a motion that we either put it in writing, so the Minister can see that I am serious, but I do not believe the excuse to say I am going to go out and consult is going to make any difference. I need a commitment from this Minister saying they will do something. Consulting is one thing, but doing it is a whole different matter. I do not think this is a big issue. The Minister has the ability to do it right here. Will he consider making an amendment to allow communities to have more sufficient time to respond to fires than just the 24 hours they are presently allowed?
