Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I believe that the federal government is best able to speak for itself as to the position of various issues; however, I would like to make the following comments. First, the GNWT officials have had some discussions with the federal officials on the federal approach to division. Second, the key question is probably the amount of funding that will be made available for division between now and 1999. It is our understanding that the federal government is basing its process for the establishment of Nunavut on the NIC model. It is my understanding that this would be establishing available funding levels, without locking us into acceptance of all details of that model. With that, thank you, Mr. Speaker.
