Mr. Eugene Clonan:

CHC Ireland employs the air crews, including engineers. The Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport has engaged CHC Ireland, under contract, to provide the search and rescue helicopter service. From our point of view, we have contract meetings three or four times per year. We audit contracts to a certain degree.

The air crews are on 15 minutes' notice by day and 45 minutes' notice by night. We lift the telephone and call them and they go. They do all the maintenance and training. That is all in the terms and conditions of the contract.
