Mr. Speaker, the request for a meeting, as penned by Mr. Robert Alexie, I believe, and Mr. Nerysoo, was addressed to the Premier, and I think, appropriately, since it should probably involve myself and perhaps other appropriate ministers, as the different jurisdictions are addressed in those discussions. I am not aware that the Premier has made any definite commitments at this time to meet with the delegation. I understood that the delegation is in town at the present time. How long they will be in town I have no idea. But it is probably a matter of logistics, trying to find a time when the Premier and other ministers are available. If they choose to meet with specific ministers as events are unfolding in the House today, I would expect that all of us will be available for the week-end, and very definitely next week as well, to meet with the delegation, and I would welcome the opportunity. Thank you.
