Mr. Speaker, caucus met in Fort Providence on April 4-6, 1993 and in Cambridge Bay on October 4-8, 1993. These strategic planning workshops were held to provide Members with a less formal setting to deliberate the many issues related to division of the Northwest Territories and the operation of the legislature and the Government of the Northwest Territories in meeting the challenges of the future.
Later today the caucus chairman, Mr. Fred Koe, will table a report summarizing the results of the Fort Providence and Cambridge Bay deliberations, principles of agreement and the ongoing work of caucus on these matters. The report will serve as a foundation for further work by the Legislative Assembly and the Government of the Northwest Territories and as a guide for the work of the Nunavut Implementation Commission and the western constitutional process.
