The honourable Member is correct. What I have done is provided instructions to the chairman of the Development Corporation to address the issue. I was using the illustration of the NWT Arctic Winter Games uniform as an example. It is my understanding that the Development Corporation will try to address this issue at the next board meeting.
But, I'm not sure that I can categorically say here that the Development Corporation won't, on occasion, compete with other businesses in the territories. I wouldn't want to say that, at this time. I think this is an isolated case. I certainly hope it is. It is certainly not the intention of it. My understanding of the Development Corporation -- the way I see it anyway, as the Minister, and as long as I'm the Minister -- is that it is primarily an instrument to provide job opportunities in areas of high unemployment. I intend to aggressively pursue that agenda.
In the meantime I will ask, and I have asked, the Development Corporation, through its chairman, to address this issue and see if we can come up with an appropriate policy or statement to clarify this particular problem that has been addressed by a number of ordinary Members. Thank you.
