Thank you. As I mentioned earlier, the Premier of the Northwest Territories or the Premier in the consensus government system has less power than in a party-based system. One of the few powers is to appoint deputy ministers. I think that it is an important power for the Premier to hold. However, as we have seen today, just from the question period, there is a diverse array of expertise in this room, and I think that there is nothing wrong with consulting with Cabinet Ministers about a potential deputy minister. I would be happy to do that. Thank you.
