Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as we all know, there weren't going to be some impacts, especially when we decided to make the decision to go to a centralized system. Now, we do have a lot of IT services which are done internally by our department. We have regional staff in the field. More importantly, Mr. Speaker, we still continue to use the private sector when it comes to purchasing hardware, software, computers and looking at upgrades. So, Mr. Speaker, like I mentioned earlier, we do spend roughly about $1 million a year working with the private sector through our contracting procedures to ensure that we have a competitive process. So we do allow for that to happen. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
