Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a question for the Minister of Government Services who I believe is responsible for the NWT Liquor Licensing Board. I have been advised by some hotel owners in the North that the licence fee for purchases from the Liquor Commission has already been increased to 10 per cent from the current fee of five per-cent. This is 100 per cent increase in a time of restraint and higher operating costs, and I think this is going to have a significant impact on customers and operators. My question to the Minister is, what is the justification for such an increase at this time?
