This is more a resource issue and one on which the Commissioner is working behind the scenes. It refers to computer systems and technology talking to each other. The Commissioner must excuse me as I am a layperson. The AVPLS system tracks vehicles and personnel. There is also a resource management software system and what is commonly called the command and control system. I am not sure whether the three systems talk to each other. Is the Commissioner satisfied the technology is where he wants it to be? Are there plans to streamline or to be allocated the resources to have one overall system rather than three?
