(Microphone turned off)...we are just initiating discussions now in relationship to what kind of royalty regime would be more conducive for the Northwest Territories and for the federal government. There are sort of bureaucratic discussions currently taking place.

With respect to royalties, particularly as it relates to diamonds, we did recruit two consulting companies to provide us with some options that we could look at in terms of the kinds of royalty regimes we want. We just recently received them from, I believe Price Waterhouse is one of the companies and I believe Peat Marwick, and we're evaluating that at the present time.

One of the difficulties we have, and I've said it in this House many times, is we still don't have the responsibility for mines at this time; it lies with the federal government. It's slightly complicated that they've decided at this late a date, considering the discussions that have gone on with respect to devolution, that they want to look at the royalty regime. While I'm a little concerned that it's coming in after the fact, I'm at least, on the other hand, pleased that they're finally paying some attention to what we believe is a fairly inadequate royalty regime under the current scheme. Thank you.
