Thank you, Madam Chair. Yes, I think that is a great idea. That would put a lot of pressure onto some of the departments who still are not combined with our infrastructure information management system, so absolutely. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. There is a variance there. It's actually an increase. No, sorry. There is a variance for increased O and M expenses for the monthly maintenance and support fees and increased travel in 2019 under compliance and licensing. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you. What the Minister was referring to was the maintenance of our actual drive system. This division, compliance and licensing, maintains the drive system, which is our driver and vehicle licensing system, and we have to provide maintenance fees to keep that up to date on an ongoing basis and move forward towards things like online services. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Mahsi, Madam Chair. Mahsi for that answer. You are mentioning that it's electrical, boiler, gas, and electrical. That sounds very familiar because we do have those safety services within the GNWT, whether it's under Infrastructure. Are these the people who you are actually using who are within government? Mahsi.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I don't know if I heard that question, my earpiece was off, but I'm sure one of the staff, Assistant Deputy Minister Vandenberg, may have heard that question. Thank you, Madam Chair.
