Good morning, Minister.
Mr. Saunders, thank you for being with us today.
My questions are on the additional funding for the Courts Administration Service, Minister.
I noted with interest that part of that is a request for further crown witness coordinators. It's my understanding that they operate primarily in the north. I believe they are based in Yellowknife, Inuvik, Whitehorse, and Iqaluit, but they often travel with the circuit court.
I'm just wondering if you could tell us what the work is they do and why they're important to the prosecution and to the witnesses and victims of crimes.
