Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would like to recommend that first of all, we consider Bill 2, followed by Committee Report 13-12(6). If we complete that, I recommend we move to Tabled Document 23-12(6) and subsequently to Bill 1 and Committee Report 10-12(6) to consider the capital budget of the Department of Renewable Resources.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just before we conclude this bill, I wanted to say that I don't know what it means now that customary adoption is now recognized under white laws. Is it customary now, or does it take away the custom, now that it is recognized under white laws and will be referred to by aboriginal people?

Mr. Chairman, the deputy minister of Justice may want to add to this, but my understanding of this document is that this procedure can be accessed and it is an option, but it takes nothing away from the traditional customary adoptions that have been taking place since time immemorial.
