Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as it stands now with the existing policy, yes, Metis have to be registered with the Metis Nation to be eligible for benefits. However, that concern has been brought forward, we're aware of it, and the department is currently preparing a decision paper for the Executive Council to amend the provision of the policy to allow for all Metis to be eligible.
