In our previous budgets the department was resourced for three positions for the latent Mackenzie Gas Pipeline. In prior year, we made a proposal to reallocate the funding for the Mackenzie Gas Pipeline to other positions in support of government priorities. In our particular case, we used the money to create, in part, the new assistant superintendent positions at the regional level. We also used resources from residual as a result of financial shared services to be created, so what we see, the reduction was a plan review position that was located in the public safety area related to Mackenzie Gas Pipeline applications, and with the authority to reallocate that funding this money has now been moved to regional operations. The amount of the reallocation was $108,000.
