Thank you, Mr. Chairman. At the top of my head, I don’t know if there is a formula that is used in determining what the best scenario is for a wait. There are various circumstances that would arise for where our wait times are. At certain times of the year we have more applications on the family law side. There seems to be around springtime more family breakups, which means we have more applications for family law cases. It is

dependent on the number of applications we receive and the lawyers available to provide those services. Right now our lawyers are staffed up on the family law side and we have some active family law lawyers out in the private sectors. Thank you.
