Thank you, Mr. Speaker. What we have been working on is a system that would allow us to have the Department of Justice electronically notify the Department of Transportation road licensing division that a person has an infraction on his record, and it would be red flagged so that when somebody comes in to renew their driver's licence, the staff person would be able to indicate to that person that he or she cannot renew her licence until they clear up the infractions. They would then have to go to the Department of Justice to clear up that account, or that fine, that had to be paid. We have not done any evaluation of what it would cost going through the court system versus what we have. That's not something that we'd be interested in. We are trying to set up a mechanism that would have people clear up their accounts, and this is one of the tools we would use to do that. Thank you.
