Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to thank the Minister for his reply. If the Minister could provide that information to all the Members, we would appreciate that. The other program is called the settlement capital assistance policy. Can the Minister tell the House what this program is going to be and what communities will benefit from this program? Thank you.

First of all, I would gladly provide a copy to all Members of the House for the settlement operating assistance policy.
As far as the settlement capital assistance policy, it is my understanding that it will make the smaller communities eligible under the existing capital funding that the GNWT currently carries out. With respect to the specific details of how it will make it more equitable for these communities, I don't have that information available now, but I will provide it at the same time to the Members. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Public Works and Services. Mr. Speaker, there was a set of guidelines for negotiated contracts approved by the government in 1993. Could the Minister advise if these guidelines have been revised since that time?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, for the mere sum of $580, I sang the praises of Rankin Inlet for the capital of Nunavut, in this Assembly earlier today. This being Friday, I would like to ask the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs, who I believe represents a community that is a contender for the capital of Nunavut, and who has been elevated to the rank of Cabinet Minister and has a larger income than he had before, is he willing to match or exceed the donation to charity made by Mr. Todd, in order that I might consider singing the praises of Cambridge Bay for capital on another Friday in this Assembly? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I don't know if it is within my realm of responsibility as the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs, but as a Member representing one of the communities vying for the capital, I would feel that it would be inappropriate for me to consider paying for a Member to solicit on behalf of my community.

Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. In the Finance Minister's Budget Address, he stated that there has been progress made on a series of issues. He said progress has been made on the issue of responsibility for policing services. I would like to ask the Minister of Justice, what progress has been made with regard to responsibility for police services?

Mr. Speaker, the intent of the comments were to convey to Members, with regard to the dispute of RCMP costs that were incurred during the course of the strike, that we believe we are nearing a favourable agreement with the federal government to resolve those outstanding costs. That was the intent of the statement by the Minister of Finance. Thank you.
