Thank you, Mr. Speaker. On Friday, June 19, 1 asked the Minister of Culture and Communications about a report prepared by the traditional knowledge working group. The Minister responded to one of my questions by stating that he was asked by the executive director of the cultural institute to hold back on responding to the report's recommendations until the group had a chance to review, re-evaluate and reconsider its recommendations. It is my understanding that the group has met, re-evaluated and reconsidered, and has decided that the original recommendations are still relevant. This was communicated by letter dated May 1. The Minister subsequently responded on May 25 stating that he will be bringing a proposal to cabinet in June outlining the way they are going to respond. Has the Minister brought his proposal dealing with this issue to cabinet?
