Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just wanted to ask if the Minister could give us a little more detail. He just indicated that some months ago he embarked on a $20 million cost savings exercise and he indicated that the departments were asked to find $10 million worth of savings that would do minimal impact on service levels where possible, another $5 million savings was asked of the departments to come up with some lower-priority areas if they could and there was still another $5 million that leaves to account for in the $20 million exercise. Can the Minister give us some indication of where he expected that other $5 million in savings to come from? Thank you.
