Mr. Speaker, when the Committee of Political Leaders met it was their wish that at some time, this Session, or the November session, if it has to be then, they wanted an opportunity to speak directly to the Members of the Legislature, on their views of the commission report, to submit a work plan, perhaps an interim budget, and where do we go from here, following the competition of the first phase of the work that Mr. Bourque, and the other commissioners, were tasked with.
It is my view, that once we have the document that all Members of that committee agreed with, in terms of a work plan and an interim budget on what they require to continue proceeding with the work, that we could, perhaps, tie that in with a recommendation to the Legislature on when would be the best possible date for discussion on that commission report.
I do not have a specific date, but once we have a plan, then it would seem to make sense to me that we would try to set a certain day for discussions on the commission report, and moving it into committee of the whole, inviting representatives of the Inuvialuit, the regions of the Dene and the Metis, and other members of the committee, so that they can address the Members directly. Thank you.
