Mr. Speaker, we're just entering an arbitration process with the UNW at the present time. I really have to be honest and say to this House that I don't think we'll be able to resolve this issue in time for this hiring season, but the Minister of Education, the Minister of Personnel and myself are well aware of the importance of these students who are hopefully coming back to spend their working life in the Northwest Territories. They need the support they can get through money paid to them for working for the Government of the Northwest Territories through the summer. We're well aware of that necessity and are doing everything we can to make sure we hire as many of those students as possible. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
