Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would concur with the Member that we have an awful lot of experience at Dene K'onia and people with good experience and a lot of dedication to the job. It is one of the bright points that came out of the review of Justice that was done last year. We have an awful lot of dedicated employees who have stuck around for a long time. We would very much like to keep as many employees as possible and take advantage of their knowledge, skills and experience. The offer of transfer will be made to many or has been made to many. Unfortunately, a lot of people find that it is either not the right time of life or because they have a partner who can't transfer, that that is not acceptable. We have worked as much as possible to find other openings for staff who are affected. Everyone now is on a government-wide priority list and will be considered with priority for any opening within the government. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
