Thank you, Mr. Chairman. With regard to forest management, there is $30 million in this capital amount and every year for the last number of years we've seen a decline in the forest expenditures because we haven't had a bad forest fire season. Have we looked at trying to budget for only those amounts that are actually expended and that surplus amount that may be left over at year end goes back to pay down the debt rather than looking at taking out $77,000? I think we could probably get a few more dollars out of this capital item. Have you considered looking at an alternative knowing we have not expended all the money? I know we just approved a $20 million sole source water bomber contract. We could probably save some money if we went out to public tender. We hear a lot with regard to trying to find savings in this government. This is one area we can realistically look at where we have an operation which is managed year round.
Realistically, we've seen a decline in the licensing area, the management of the forestry itself. Has the department looked at making deeper cuts than $77,000? Can we do better than $77,000 for a budget that is totalling some $30 million?
