Madam Speaker, I think I would have to report it is going fairly well, as far as we are concerned administratively. I don't get nearly as many complaints about the taxes as I used to. Some people were quite surprised to see that there is an enclosure in their tax returns this year where they can get a credit back. We have been analysing the tax. The federal government has now agreed to pay, as everyone knows. There is just one outstanding issue and that is with the Dene Nation. I reported that to the House last year. So I think it is working well. Some of the employers have not reported because they are only supposed to report once a year. So it will be at the 12 month stage where we will be able to analyze it, in its entirety. So we will need another four or five months yet, Madam Speaker, to do the analysis. Thank you.
