Mr. Chairman, we had also to meet our targets and looked at the work being done in the areas that we felt we needed to continue on. We’ve highlighted and achieved most of our deductions through a number of changes in policy, and as I’ve highlighted in my opening comments, the insurance change was a fairly big one. One of the other areas…. For example, we had one of our positions move on. That was the economic policy analyst. We’ve managed to work it out that we would have a filled position after we had an individual leave. So we looked at the delivery method, what we needed to do, and the fact that we had a position that was term, as well, and then we looked at coming out with the balance. It’s not a question of whether the work is not required; it’s a matter of how we can shift the workload around.
