Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this amendment would allow us to complete our budget, allow the Nunavut Caucus to meet their other obligations and it will allow for a two-week break. So I ask Members to support the amendment. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I just want to clarify to the House that, as the chair of the Nunavut Caucus, I tried to change the dates of the March 16th meeting scheduled to be held. But because of the Price Waterhouse report not being available prior to that date, we could not change the date. I'm supporting the motion to accommodate the Nunavut Caucus Members because this document is a key part of a Nunavut government and I hope that Members will support it. Thank you.
