Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I agree that we’re going to be challenged more and more to try to anticipate the plan for the future. Prevention, as the Member indicates, is one thing; mitigation and adaptation are going to be the other two. So this particular division has a role to play, but if we’re going to link all the pieces not only in this department but other departments that have that prognostication function and as we move through Managing This Land and other committees that we have, that type of work and the budgeting side as well as we project our fire costs, for example, and costs that we’re going to need to just try to stay ahead and deal with some of these extreme weather events are going to be a challenge. I agree that we are going to be put upon more and more to try to anticipate more accurately. Thank you.
