Thank you. Good morning, supervisors. Good morning. I am here today to support the sheriff and his effort to reduce the cost of these collect calls. We provide the representation to 23,000 people a year and 83 percent of the people that are charged are below the federal Poverty Level in San Francisco and the reality is, as the sheriff said, it is if the families that are getting gouged because the inmates for the most part have no money and no resources when they are in custody.

Able to meet or appropriately staffed and once being able to meet our response requirements and so forth, there are initial costs and ten there are additional training costs with having all paramedics in the department and most urban departments do not and they have a percentage whether it is one quarter, or you know, onethird, to be at an advanced life support level of training. Okay. So, i think that we are going to explore this particular issue a little bit more. But i guess that the question...
