Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Our expectation is that there won't be any extra cost that would have to be borne by corrections. The costs for transportation, right now, are already worked into our contract with the RCMP and the expectation is that that will continue, whether it's from Hay River or Lutselk'e. There is still the cost for transportation. The RCMP tries to schedule their aircraft to move prisoners around in a method that makes economic sense and they are quite vigilant at working to be as economic as possible. Thank you.
