Could the Minister provide the committee with the information, to best of his ability, as to what type of administrative cost burden the management and levying of fees imposes? I do not make this request in a vexatious or frivolous manner. It was a matter of some consideration and concern when these matters were considered across the water. It is something that should be factored in, but I will not press the issue.

I have questions about two other areas of concern. In defence, all of us understand that there are obvious sensitivities in some areas.
