Thank you, Mr. Chairman. With regard to the Statute Revision Act, I have some concerns in relation to land claim settlements where there are presently processes, the legislation which those agreements fall under, which fall under federal legislation but have been converted into NWT legislation. What we think is there is a real...It doesn't seem to be on the priority list of the government. In the case of the inuvialuit, in some cases it has taken 10 years to implement the Wildlife Act to allow for these things to happen. I want to know if there is a possibility of this slowing that process down any more than what it is because of the amount of energy and time to be spent dealing with this aspect. If there's other legislation that's been there before we've come to this state, it should also be considered and the appropriate resources and time be spent implementing that legislation.
