Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is directed to the honourable Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs. Mr. Speaker, some time ago, there was a news release regarding the construction of the airport in Pelly Bay. According to the news release, a group indicated its displeasure of having the hamlet council of Pelly Bay being the project manager of this construction project.
The Minister of MACA and Transportation will recall the meeting we had with the mayor of Pelly Bay, myself and one representative from Pelly Bay; that the indication was all three parties -- in this case, MACA, Transportation and the hamlet council of Pelly Bay -had agreed that this would be the best approach. The hamlet of Pelly Bay has demonstrated in the post their ability to do the project. It has a very good track record. It has hired locally. It has provided training. According to the mayor of Pelly Bay and myself, the project was to go ahead.
Will the honourable Minister honour the decision that was made by the hamlet council of Pelly Bay and the government of this day to go ahead with the airport project with the hamlet council being the project manager? Will she agree that this project will go ahead as decided by three parties? Thank you.
