Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, this work is not done exclusively by the internal audit bureau. There is also the internal audit committee, which has five deputy ministers that sit on it. So there is a fair bit of effort across the GNWT that is involved. But in terms of the actual, you know, work that -- that does happen, I can say that the experience that -- that's been relayed to me on behalf of the comptroller general's office is that they have a good relationship in dealing with the RCMP. They also will, if there's a concern around there being assets that are put -- GNWT assets that are in jeopardy or allegations of corruption or other forms of fraud, then there's consultation done with labour relations, with Department of Justice legal counsel, and certainly, obviously, individual departments as may be necessary. Then, of course, contacting the RCMP, as I've said, has been thus far positive for our -- every time that that's come up. There's, you know -- [Audio] -- associated, a process involved, Madam Chair. And -- but it's not -- you know, it's not this line item alone that is -- that is responsible for that. It's a much more whole-of-government approach when it comes to dealing with fraud or the loss -- a potential loss of assets. Thank you, Madam Chair.
