Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is directed to the Minister responsible for Government Services. The Education and training, and subsequently, the employment and business opportunities, are the most important components for maintaining social well being among the young people. In other words, hopes, dreams, and aspirations. Mr. Speaker, the government plays a major role in inspiring the hopes and aspirations of our young people and businesses in today's world. Now, Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask Mr. Minister about the contracts and what the government policy is in awarding government contracts within our jurisdiction. Are there any conditions, or certain areas, when awarding these contracts. By that I mean, do we have conditions when a southern contractor is awarded the contract that specifically states the contractor shall hire local labour, and the contractor shall utilize the local hotel? Thank you.
