Thank you. Now, what Mr. Schauerte explained totally makes sense, and I thank the Minister and Mr. Schauerte for answering that. I realize it's getting late, but thank you for being patient with me as we move forward. So I'm done with this section. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you. Next, we have Mr. Vanthuyne.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Can the department confirm that this budget consists of a review of the Fire Prevention Act? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Vanthuyne. Minister Cochrane.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, that is correct. The Fire Prevention Act is being reviewed, and we are expecting that there will be changes within this Legislative Assembly. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister Cochrane. Mr. Vanthuyne.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Can the Minister just maybe explain to us what is the review consisting of? Are we doing a jurisdictional review of other provinces and territories, and is there stakeholder engagement, stakeholder consultation that will be taking place as part of the review? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Vanthuyne. Ms. Young.

Thank you, Ms. Young. No further questions? Ms. Green.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I just have a question that relates to 911. Could the Minister remind me about the fees? At what point will the fees cover the costs of 911, or will they not do that at all? Thank you.

Thank you, Ms. Green. Minister Cochrane.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. As per the recommendation of standing committee, we have agreed with standing committee, and the fees will cover the total cost of 911, except for, of course, the initial implementation that we are currently doing, but after it's on the ground and operating, the fees to the consumers will actually cover the cost for the provision of service. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Ms. Cochrane. Ms. Green.

Thank you for the answer. Nothing further.

Thank you. Next, we have Mr. Beaulieu.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I just wanted to get a little bit of an explanation on which direction the ground ambulance highway rescue is going. I know that we've received explanations that it was three different departments and maybe even the various municipalities, that is on page 358, and the various municipalities were also involved in some key communities, like Providence, maybe, McPherson, Smith, and maybe Hay River. I'm just trying to sort out how that has evolved. I know that I see some money. It is probably not enough for all of those communities. I think Fort Simpson is also one of the communities that provides highway access. It kind of falls in the hands of the municipalities, for the most part, but I don't know what jurisdictions and so on are around all of the whole ground ambulance. I'd ask the Minister if she could explain where that's headed. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Ms. Cochrane.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So we're still in the process of actually defining all of the resources that will be needed to implement a proper ground ambulance highway rescue service. We have hired a consultant, so that process is going on right at this moment. We're hoping that that will be finished within the next couple of months. We have currently $185,000 that is for the communities that are providing the highway rescue service at this time. Previously, there were strict requirements on it, that they had to use it for defined services, defined by MACA. That was raised as an issue, I'm not sure if it was in the House or by standing committee, and we also heard that. So we've expanded that, and we took the money and we divided it up to the communities that are providing that service right now. They are allowed to use it for what they see that they feel that they need towards providing highway rescue. Then, once the report is finished, we'll be looking at whether we need to increase it, what resources will be needed, and how we'll distribute that funding, recognizing that we do have one new highway to Tuktoyaktuk and that the road to Whati might need to be considered as well. So, those are the things we're looking at. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister Cochrane. Mr. Beaulieu.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I'd like to ask the Minister if she has, not the exact amount but approximately, how many highway rescues with ground ambulance actually occur annually? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Minister Cochrane.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. We don't have that information at this time. That is one of the things we are looking at. Some of the communities actually provide that information more because they feel that they're not collecting on the fees. Other communities, for example the City of Yellowknife, actually are doing really well collecting on their fees. So we haven't been collecting them before that, and we don't even know if they've been reporting them all. So that is one of the pieces that we are looking at, how many actually will be needed, how many currently, and what's the projection of what will be needed in the future. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Minister Cochrane. Mr. Beaulieu.
