These sorts of ideas are very good. I think there is an opportunity to do these sorts of initiatives in the near future. There is work internally on the transition review team to look at how this government exists and operates. RWED is a huge department that amalgamated not too long ago and the way the regions were structured as a result of the amalgamation... There's nothing saying that this is the way it should be forever. I think there are ways open here to suggest changes. I think that the way we have been operating now is not the way we've been operating four or five years ago, things are always changing. Through land claims and self government arrangements, it is going to change. Things are going to change in the future, so, if we solve the problem of housing in the smaller communities and communities other than the centres, solve the problem of office space, I don't see it would be any problem in the future for the transition review team to see if some of these positions could be moved out of the centre. Thank you.
