Mr. Speaker, when we were down in Ottawa a few days ago we did approach the Minister responsible asking that he would conclude, as quickly as possible, the appointment. The earliest time that decision can be made, according to the sittings that the federal government has to deal with those issues, is February 27th. Thank you.

I assume that if there is a list of names, there has been some input from people in the North. I assume that this government will be making a recommendation to have someone appointed. Will they?

Mr. Speaker, as the honourable
Member knows, a lot of time has gone by from the time that it was discussed, almost a year ago, so I would be prepared to find out exactly what the status is and which names are being considered, at the earliest point in time. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have been doing some follow-up with regard to capital for my region pertaining to this fiscal year, 1992-93. Mr. Speaker, we budgeted approximately $240,000 to construct an office/warehouse complex for the Department of Renewable Resources in Lac la Martre. I understand that this project has been delayed, or even cancelled. I would like to question the Minister as to when this decision was made and who made this decisions?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The commitment that the Member has indicated was made by the previous government, and when my department prioritized the capital items, my department officials and myself made this change.

Mr. Speaker, I have asked a specific question as to when the decision was made to defer or cancel this particular project. I do not think the Minister answered me. Also, who made the decision?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I do not have the exact date as to when this change was made, but as the Minister responsible for Renewable Resources I was involved with the decision on the capital item that the Member indicated.

Mr. Speaker, a commitment was made to a community. It was already budgeted for construction this year. All of a sudden the department, at the stroke of a pen, has either cancelled or is planning to delay this project.
Mr. Speaker, I want to know if the department has consulted with the community; and if they did, I would like to know who they consulted with. I was surely not consulted. I would like to ask those questions.
