Mr. Chairman, I must have started asking in the wrong section of the book, but this is probably where I should be asking my questions. Where does this equipment for emergency measures go, and what does it entail? Thank you.

Is this the $20,000, Mr. Chairman, or the $110,000?

This project is part of a phased project to provide an alternate communications system around Great Slave Lake, should the regular communications system go down for one reason or another. It is a project that is implemented in cooperation with the local amateur radio society. So far, they've completed, I believe, two phases and it includes seven phases in total, for amounts varying from $20,000 to $40,000.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would have thought this would be an area where the department would consider assistance to community search and rescues, which is, I think, a vital part of community organizations, based in the east. I'm wondering if the department gives any consideration to organizations such as search and rescues and if there are any plans to give assistance to those organizations in the east? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The front line responsibility for search and rescue lies with the RCMP. We are well aware, particularly because of recent events, that our efforts are perhaps not as well laid out as they should be. I've instructed the department to review the policy. We're going to require some new fiscal requirements and these will have to presented to Cabinet.

Thank you. Just a question, I'm sorry, I was out for a few minutes there. In your opening remarks, you made a statement about the municipal capital assistance policy. Can I get a copy of that policy?
