There is a sufficient number of inspectors. We have increased the budget by $72 million over the past five years in order to increase the number of inspectors. Some $15 million was added permanently. You are correct, sir, in saying that the bill will allow Transport Canada to improve its oversight capacity to ensure enforcement of the act and will increase the department's powers. It also enhances the role of rail safety management systems for railway companies. Safety is extremely important to us, and we have the teams needed for that purpose.
