Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My colleague is correct there was the report that went to the Government Operations on June 14th that I sent, I believe. We did receive some comments and some directions from the Government Operations Committee. Given the sensitivity of this issue and the importance of it, in that we need to move forward into getting more aboriginal northerners into the civil service, we are trying to incorporate the concerns that were expressed by the committee. We are going to try and have that together as soon as we can.

I am a bit concerned, if I may answer this way, that when we talk about affirmative action and then my honourable colleague earlier talked about job strategy, to me, in a sense, even though they are of similar mind, there are two separate entities. So, I am having some difficulty with that, but I am hoping and I am optimistic that we will be able to conclude this report, including the recommendations made by the Government Operations Committee, s quickly as possible and, if not table in the House in the next two weeks, certainly get it ready for January. I apologize to my colleague for the delay in this important matter. Thank you.
