No formal request to have that conversation has been made, but it is something that I think we should be looking into. After all, we are maturing as a jurisdiction. The Member opposite mentioned the excellent work that OROGO is doing, so, yes, we should have that conversation. It is time, in my view, to re-examine this situation. Thank you.

I may have to look further into that issue, of these straddle types of arrangements, so perhaps I can handle the question best by saying that I will get back to the Member opposite.

I thank the Member opposite for his kind words about OROGO. It is an established regulator now, and I believe that, at this stage, with this proven track record, both Canada and the Inuvialuit might be receptive to having a conversation around the benefits of replacing the NEB as regulator for in the ISR area. Increasingly, this government over the years is becoming master in our own home, if I may use the French phrase, "maitres chez nous."

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The National Energy Board was preserved as the regulator of oil and gas operations in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region through the devolution negotiations at the request of Canada and the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation. I understand also that Canada and the Inuvialuit had an interest in maintaining the existing relationship and that Canada in particular felt it was important to maintain as much consistency in the regulation of offshore resources with adjacent onshore resources as possible. That arrangement may have made some sense as an interim measure. OROGO, in my...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to recognize Vance Sanderson from Thebacha.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. To my left is Mandi Bolstad, director of corporate services with the Department of Justice, and to my right, Martin Goldney, the deputy minister of Justice. Thank you.

Yes, we are always trying to look at ways to enhance policing protection for our communities, so we are open to looking at new suggestions, but I don't want to hold out false hopes that we would be able to have a detachment in every community. That does not seem likely or possible, but, as I say, we are looking at ways to look at the delivery of police services more efficient and as good as we can make it, if I can put it that way. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I may have not given the best answer to the last question, so I am going to refer this to Ms. Bolstad. Perhaps she can give a more accurate and helpful answer to the question. Thank you.

Yes. Thank you. Thank you for the question. I think overtime will always be a factor in a facility that is open around the clock. I do see that overtime that was pretty significant in past years is still significant, but it does seem to be decreasing this year. As I say, it seems that the nature of the facility, or this type of facility, is that they will always be some overtime. The question is: is it a reasonable amount? I can see that it appears to be going down, at least compared to last year when it was very high. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I understand that, actually, this is a surplus, but perhaps I could have Ms. Bolstad expand on my answer.
