Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The short answer to the Member's question is no, it is not at all usual to have such a length of time on an estate in the office for which I am responsible for. Right now there are about 576 files being handled by that office. About 40 per cent of those are from Inuit estates and steps are being taken through computerization to improve the turnaround time. So I can only assume this is an exceptional situation he describes. Thank you.
