Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If there is a requirement in communities for RCMP presence, doesn’t the department feel responsible if something happens in cases like that if they can’t afford to have RCMP present in the community? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you. The motion is just being circulated for review right now. The motion is in order. To the motion.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I don’t know if I can go into this, I’m still on petroleum products, but I’m looking at the main estimates going back to 2003-04. Can the Minister give me a sense of grant-in-kind of $524,000? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Mr. Dent.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have a few comments with regard to the policing situation in Sachs Harbour. Yesterday, the Minister responded to Mr. Menicoche’s comments that it’s going to require three personnel to open up a new detachment, not two as previously mentioned. Having said that, I wonder how that is going to affect the small communities? Labour standards says they requested a two-person detachment and now they are looking at three-person detachments. How is the department going to respond to that? Thank you.
