I think the numbers I heard recently were that the Grain Commission was receiving over $40 million, and if you're just cutting $20 million out of a cost by changing things like inward inspection, you are going to have significant increases in licensing fees and other costs, perhaps a four to six times increase in the cost of a licence. Those costs will be passed by the grain companies back to farmers, which is why we were in agreement that we needed to have more streamlining of the Grain Commission as you move to cost recovery, so that farmers' costs are not driven up.
