Thank you, Madam Speaker. A couple of weeks ago, there was a funeral service in Fort Providence. Some of the problems that the community experienced were with regard to the inconsistencies in who pays for funeral services and how that is determined. In the situation two weeks ago, I think the relatives of the deceased covered practically all the costs. I don't know who is eligible. When they have a deceased person, who covers the costs? I would like to ask the Minister whether there is a policy in place right now with regard to when you have a funeral service, who covers the costs for the casket, the transportation and that sort of thing?
