Mr. Chairman, my question is on the definition of artists, carvers and other occupations. Are you talking about homemakers who make traditional clothing for the purpose of helping the family with income, those who make parkas for tourists and stuff like this? Are you including those in the area of carvers' incomes>

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The committee did not have a clear definition of others. I believe the committee meant the statement "other occupations" to be at the discretion of the Minister responsible for the Workers' Compensation Board.
