Thank you, Mr. Chair, and I appreciate the Member's position. I will say that we have taken her position a number of months ago when this first came up, we have made changes within, we have got the report done, but waiting for the report we didn't stop and do no work. We did increase the number of assessors and we have moved forward to increase the number of assessments. We have been able to fund from within to this point, which we're prepared to keep doing as we move forward to get rid of some of the backlog.

What I'm indicating to the Member, and I hope I'm clear, is that as we've done this work we've been able to get to a point where we can start quantifying what we think future demand will be, and that's what we'll need to discuss the next business planning cycle. What we've done and what we'll do till then is cover from within in order to meet the needs. Once we get the numbers stabilized so we have a general sense of what's coming in without increased backlog, we'll have far better information to make some decisions on what we will need moving forward. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
