Thank you, Madam Chair. I will officially say I appreciate Cabinet for helping us move along in the system. Madam Chair, the Minister read into the record in his opening remarks about Supreme Court and the fact that they sat 113 days. As I understand it, we have three members on our bench for the Supreme Court and that's about 38 days each. I am trying to get a sense of how many days each year each justice sits. How many sitting days do justices sit in court? Talking about Supreme Court justices, who pays for the appointment of a particular cost associated with the Supreme Court? How do you know when you need four, if you only have three in the system right now? I find it unusual, of course it's a normal practice, I am sure, by federal standards, that the federal government appoints a Supreme Court judge to our court without any input from the territorial level. Maybe the Minister could enlighten me on some of those matters. Thank you, Madam Chair.
