As we've mentioned previously, the Lands department was only created a couple of years ago, and there was an amalgamation of employees who worked for the territorial government and those that formerly worked for the federal government, and naturally there were overlaps when the systems to incorporate cultures, if I can put it that way, were combined. So when we were looking at the situation, we looked at areas where we thought there could be rational evidence-based reductions, and for that reason we looked at the positions and determined that these positions were ones that could be reduced. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
