Yes. Certainly, we are willing to look at the system. As I mentioned previously, I don't think sending this to the Judicial Remuneration Committee would be appropriate, but we will look at it. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Just to go through the number of patrols; there's a series of them. Perhaps I can just read them in. In Colville Lake, there were 14 patrols in 2015; in 2016, there were eight; and in 2017, there were 15. In Wrigley, I see that there were 24 patrols in 2015; 25 in 2016; and, again, 25 in 2017. Of course that would be out of the Fort Simpson detachment. In Sambaa K'e, there were six patrols in 2015, three patrols in 2016, and seven patrols in 2017. In Nahanni Butte, there were 11 patrols in 2015; 15 patrols in 2016; and apparently we don't have the information from last...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, we still have a per pay transcription fee that we do pay. In certain civil cases, I assume, it might be paid for by the lawyers involved, but there will be a cost for us.

I have no further comment. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes. I certainly could consider such a visit. As I mentioned, we are rolling out a new proposal to reduce the rents from 10 per cent to 5 per cent of appraised value. Now, that's the appraised value of the land itself, so, even if a very nice house is built on that land, that doesn't affect the 5 or 10 per cent that we have been charging on the land itself. I think we are going to try to be in touch with people who are in a situation and make them realize or give them the information that we are reducing the lease fees from 10 to 5 per cent. After that, I would certainly consider such a visit...

Again, it was an estimate, Mr. Chair, but I understand it is about the same as the previous year. Thank you.

No, we wouldn't be using the Judicial Remuneration Committee to examine the salaries, but we will examine what the current salary situation is. Thank you.

Yes. Certainly, Mr. Chair. I think that family violence is a concern of virtually all of the communities, and the communities that do not have detachments often have concerns about access to RCMP. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I can confirm there is a reduction of $478,000, as was mentioned, in the court reporter program.

Thank you. Yes. That seems sensible.
