Madam Speaker, the Government of the Northwest Territories and the industry recognize that there has to be due process in this regard. What are we doing to suggest to the federal government that this is taking too long?
Back in the summer, we gave them a list of proposed members for the panel, asked that the process get off the ground, that it gets going very quickly, and that we had no wish to hold up industry in the Northwest Territories.
Secondly, as I said in response to Mr. Ballantyne's question, Madam Speaker, the Premier is going to raise, or has already raised this issue with the Prime Minister. That is the importance we attach to it. We would hope that when the Prime Minister comes back, he is able to jar his Ministers loose and tell them we must get on with this process immediately. Thank you.
