Thank you, Madam Speaker. The question on the referendum will be, "Do you want the hamlet of..." for example "...Iqaluit to be able to sell municipal lands?" In the event the answer is no, they will still have the responsibility of municipal lands. If the vote is yes, that gives them the authority to sell municipal land. But if the local council doesn't want to sell the land, they don't have to. It will be up to the community. There will be money available from the federal government to help pay for the salaries and the trained local land administrators. Thank you.
