Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, the word I used in my previous comment as well is "efficiencies," and I guess this is what we're trying to do is utilize efficiencies and apply them where it's applicable for a more streamlined administration system.

So I look forward to any further discussions on our recommendations, if there is willingness. Sure it might be working but can it work better I guess is my personal statement, but if there is, with the powers that be, to entertain the idea of transferring the water inspectors to the Lands, okay, we'll leave it at that as a suggestion.

My next question on the Lands Act -- no, I'll leave that for later, Mr. Chair. I'll go to the operational budget as set out in 293. I noticed 2015-16 versus 2017-18; 2015-16 we see a transfer of devolution authorities and related transfer budget allowances there from the agreement that was negotiated, and it has dropped ever since. My understanding is that devolution has seen some transitional funding that was supposed to come within the next three years or the next five years of operations. Why has the head office administration funding budget been on a slide or decreasing since takeover of devolution? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
