(Translation) Thank you, Madam Speaker. I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Justice. Since he is not present, I will be directing my question to the Premier. This question has been an ongoing concern in some of my communities. It is with regard to correctional institute inmates and the policies in these institutions. From some of the communities, some relatives are welcomed to a place where there is an inmate, in the Baffin or in Yellowknife, for example. The hours are set for when you are allowed to have visitors. In Iqaluit, some relatives have tried to visit inmates from the nearby communities. Since the visiting hours were set, they were not able to see their relatives. I wonder if the policy can be changed, so these people coming from outside of the community where the correctional institute is could be allowed to see their relatives outside of visiting hours. Thank you, Madam Speaker.
