Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just have a question in response to the department's answer to Mr. Bell's earlier question. I was listening to the answer, but I am not sure if I understood what the answer was saying. I am in possession of the same information that Mr. Bell has.

In my first reading of it, it appears to me the department has discontinued doing something that it has done to cooperate with the City of Yellowknife in terms of some of the data on motor vehicles registration, and also having a system in place where the registration may be denied when people have tickets owing or outstanding charges or something. There was a cooperation that was happening that has resulted in the city being able to get the job done without having to have their own manpower and such.

I have two questions. What has brought about this change? I do not believe there has been a change in the Access to Information Act. That is not a new act.

My second question is that it just appears to me it seems to be contrary to the partnership and working together that we are trying to foster. Will the Minister and the department consider revisiting this change in policy? Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Those are my two questions.
