Mr. John McKeon:
No. That is the point I was going to make. The Chair mentioned Rathdowney, and I know that Rathdowney is one that is open on a part-time basis. However, as well as the 59 around the country that are open on a permanent basis, there are about 59 as well - I need to confirm that number - that are open on a part-time basis for two to three hours a week. Overall, we basically have an in-person CWO service in about 100 locations around the country. About half are permanently staffed and about half are satellites. In addition, there about another 50 locations that a CWO will travel to within an hour's notice.
