We've tried to identify some of the reasons. We indicate that it is our opinion that the coast guard has this attitude that they can do everything, and they take on way too much. So in response to all of these audits, there have been action plans and promises to fix everything, except it wasn't realistic to try to do everything at once, and the effort could not be sustained over time.
We are strongly encouraging the coast guard to focus on a few priorities that they will of course determine, move forward on those, get those done, and then pick some more.
We have to recognize, too, that the coast guard has undergone a lot of organizational change. It was part of the Department of Transport, then part of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, and now is a separate special operating agency. The organization in the Department of Fisheries up until two years ago was regional in nature, so it's not perhaps surprising that two years later it is still operating regionally.
One of the major challenges of the coast guard is the aging fleet and the increasing unreliability of that fleet. It is spending more time being serviced, and the costs of repairs and maintenance are going up.
