Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In the past, the federal government has not funded their 30 percent side of the RCMP for additional resources. That process changed two years ago when there was a commitment to fully fund any additional resources that the provinces and territories put forward. They have now changed the mechanism on how they are funding the RCMP. So, yes, in answer to the question there have been times when the Treasury Board or the Solicitor General has not provided appropriate funding on the RCMP side for their 30 percent.
