Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The department is aware of the issue that the Member is raising. I know the Minister and ourselves did try to work with the Village to come up with a way for them to purchase the vehicle in question. The $40,000 under the Ground Ambulance and Highway Rescue Program is for small equipment, manuals, training, and those types of expenses. It’s not meant to be a capital expense. The purchase of the vehicle in question would be. So we tried to find a way in the current capital plan of the Village to work that in and we just weren’t able to make it happen at that time. It’s not like we weren’t trying to be helpful, but it is a capital item and unfortunately we couldn’t find a solution for the Member or the Village at that time. If things have changed, we’d be more than happy to sit down with the Village and see what we can work out again.
