Minor hockey.

Minor hockey is a good one, Mr. Todd. Primarily aimed at the young people in the Northwest Territories, Mr. Speaker, to allow them to travel more around the Northwest Territories. That is one of the things we are presently working on. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Oral questions. Mr. Pudlat.

(Translation) Mr. Speaker, I have a question to the Minister of the Housing Corporation. We are appreciative in Lake Harbour that there will be a housing authority office which is more decent than the old one because they were staying in an old building, and we are very appreciative that they now have a new office. While they were building, the people who were responsible for the gravel put in too much, and the hamlet office had to pay more. So the hamlet has written to the Housing Corporation to see if they can get the money back. I wonder if the Minister is aware if the hamlet has been paid in regard to the gravel. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you. Mr. Morin.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My understanding is that the contractor and the NWT Housing Corporation have a dispute. The hamlet got stuck with the bill somehow. They are working on it to address the situation. I understand it has been outstanding for some time, since December, so I would just like to reassure the Member that it will come to a conclusion in a very short period of time, by July. Thank you.

Thank you. Oral questions. Mr. Gargan.

Thank you. Mr. Allooloo.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. No, I will got my department to see if we can get a meeting together between the town of Hay River, a member from the reserve, and maybe Mr. Gargan, to see if we could work on the plan so that the maintenance of the ice bridge could be ironed out. Thank you.

Thank you. Supplementary, Mr. Gargan.

Mr. Speaker, I also asked the Minister whether or not he considered that ice road a public access road.

Thank you. Mr. Allooloo.

Mr. Speaker, I am told that the ice bridge is within the municipality of Hay River. Thank you.

Thank you. Second supplementary, Mr. Gargan.

So is it a public access road, then?

Thank you. Mr. Allooloo.

Mr. Speaker, since it is a part of the municipal land, I would have to check with the Town of Hay River. Thank you.

The Minister is taking that question as notice. Oral questions. Member for Thebacha.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a question for the Minister of Education. Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister of Education, with respect to a Supreme Court judgment in the Territories which was filed on May 8. On February 28, Justice de Weerdt of the Territorial Supreme Court heard a civil suit filed by Martselos Services Limited against Arctic College, and on May 8, Justice de Weerdt filed his judgment, finding that Arctic College awarding damages to Martselos Services for a breach of contract. This had to do, again, with improper tendering procedures used at Arctic College. Can the Minister advise this House as to the status of this particular case? Thank you.

Thank you. Mr. Allooloo.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. At this point I could not comment directly on the judgment as it is currently under review. However, the college followed established GNWT procedures for tendering, and sought legal counsel prior to awarding the contract in question. Thank you.

Thank you. Oral questions.

Supplementary, Member for Thebacha.

Mr. Speaker, can I get clarification from the Minister as to whether this judgment is under review by the college, or is it under the appeal process of the court system?
