Thank you, Madam Speaker. Just to advise the honourable Members, presently the new Minister of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources has established a steering committee to address the whole matter of the mining developments in the Lac de Gras and the Slave geological area. I think the experiences we had with the KIA, Metall Mining Limited, Human Resource Development Canada and Education, Culture and Employment, along with Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources, in our initial discussions on the Izok Lake initiative, was a good basis by which we should continue our consultations and discussions with the mining industry. I think that will be a template for the same kind of dialogue and discussions we conduct with BHP, or any of the other mining companies involved in the Lac de Gras area.
