Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This is a return to a question asked by Mrs. Marie-Jewell on February 19, 1992, on federal grants in lieu of property taxes. As of February 19, 1992, the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs estimated $4,503,517 of federal grants in lieu of property taxes as outstanding to the tax-based municipalities. The 1991 outstanding grants in lieu have been included in the above total. As all interim payments have not been received for 1990-91, the current total outstanding grants will be reduced substantially.

Mr. Speaker, I also have the outstanding grants in lieu of property taxes broken down by municipality. For Fort Simpson, the total outstanding is $324,221; Fort Smith, $451,232; Hay River, $229,282; Inuvik, $934,797; Iqaluit, $969,795; Norman Wells, total outstanding, $100,314; Yellowknife, $1,493,876; for a total outstanding of $4,503,517.
