Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We are close to an agreement to ensure that all parties and all stakeholders are actively involved in the Mining Safety Act committee. I am confident that by Monday we will be able to bring to the table all workers' representatives as well as mine management. At this time, the act is at Justice with respect to having if done into legalese. The component which is of significant interest to the workers in particular are the regulations. They are 60 to 70 per cent along. The new committee or the enlarged committee will then review the act and will complete the regulations which are necessary for this act to be enacted. I am hopeful that with some new members to the committee we will have a committee which is representative of all workers in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
