Mr. Chair, some of this funding might have been lapsed had there been no reduction exercise, but again, the amount of money allocated for this very important function was based on a risk matrix and not based on concerns about the overall budget. So it's not as though we're not living up to the expectations of the people of the Northwest Territories; again, this is based on a risk matrix. There's less activity out there; therefore, less money was required for travel.
