Mr. Chairman, what I will say is Cabinet will continue to deal with this on a case-by-case basis. If we are making an appointment to the bench expecting that a justice will live in a certain community or region, then we will indicate so in the conditions of employment and they will have to comply with that. There could be any number of scenarios where the condition could be they reside in the Northwest Territories and we don't want to specify a location. We could change the model. Mr. Chairman, there are a number of scenarios, but if we think it's important for a judge to live in a certain community, we will specify that in the contract, in the terms of the employment and we expect, because it's laid out in the act, that the judge will comply with that. Thank you.
