Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I understand that the Premier's grandfather is buried in that area. As I mentioned earlier, the Kimmumala Island is very unique to the history of the people of the north, especially the history of the explorers who came to try to find a way to go west to east, looking for the Northwest Passage. I hope the Minister will endeavour to do everything he can for the community so that whatever remains in those historical areas, such as the remains of explorers and artifacts, will be maintained and will belong to the community. Perhaps if we can find the remains of the explorers we can maybe promote tourism in that area. That is just a point I want to make. Thank you.
