Thank you very much, Mr. Minister.
With respect to the Queen of the North, I believe the question was what had we done with respect to the safety of single-compartment vessels operating on the west coast. First of all, I want to reassure all committee members that all ferries operated by B.C. Ferries have been inspected by Transport Canada and do meet all our safety requirements. They are inspected on a regular basis, and if there ever are any problems, we make sure they're rectified before those vessels are certified.
With respect to the Queen of the North accident itself, as you rightly indicated, the TSB investigation is under way and we're awaiting the results of that investigation to determine what future regulatory action may be required, if any, to improve the safety of our ferries if it's deemed that is required.
