Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I can't put the budget process on hold. So, no, I can't commit to do that. Mr. Speaker, there are a number of reductions in this budget. We are not going out and consulting with the public on all of them. We have consulted with MLAs. We started that process in the business planning exercise last fall. That is the consultation that the government does on its budget. This move will have a limited impact on people who have or are alleged to commit a crime. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
