Earlier we talked about the growing complexity of decisions and appeals. Obviously there are staffing issues and the issues that were mentioned about getting enough expertise inhouse. My question relates somewhat to head 318. Is there a significant issue with the board being able to get enough technical expertise to assist with analysing submissions on complex planning or technical areas where the board or the staff on the board may not have that expertise themselves? How much of an issue is that?
