Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The business incentive policy was designed to make an equal playing ground for northern businesses versus southern businesses. There is a 15 per cent preference for northern businesses, and there is a five per cent local preference for local businesses. The spirit and intent of the business incentive policy is to encourage people to hire locally, hire northerners and to encourage northern business development. Thank you.
