Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. This is a question I will perhaps have Mr. Goldney expand on, but yes, we are moving and have been moving to a new system. This is not something that we are breaking new ground on. This is quite common in the South. Ultimately, I think there will be an ongoing requirement, or likely for the near future, for subcontractor court reporters in jury trials. I know in the past, of course, we use them at all levels of court. We are in the process of moving to a different system. This is to really modernize and hopefully make more efficient our current system. Having court reporters, and generally they come from the South, has been very expensive for us.

Again, I think that using court recording technology would reduce our reliance on contracts. I think most of these contracts, if not all of them, were with southern contractors and were incredibly expensive. Many courtrooms in Canada have introduced new court recording technology, and I understand that a successful pilot was completed in two Yellowknife courtrooms and in some circuits late last year. New equipment and software will be rolled out in the future.

Perhaps Mr. Goldney can expand on that. Again, we are not out of step with other jurisdictions in this. I think, to some degree, we are catching up. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
