Thank you, Mr. Chair. The grievance process is one that is, obviously, on-going with a number of cases at any given time. We find our labour relations team works very closely with the departments and with the Union of Northern Workers on this. We’ve had upwards of about 300 grievances at any given time heretofore, before we started a monthly case management process, where representatives of our labour relations group sit down with the UNW to have monthly case management meetings. We have been able to address a lot of the grievances that way, through a really hands-on, collaborative process. It has brought our average down now. We have it relatively consistent, around 200 grievances ongoing, at any given time. We are proud of that number. We think it has brought it down and we will continue to work towards bringing that down even more. Thank you.
