Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I want to assure my honourable colleague that priority for me on this issue was yesterday or the day before yesterday. In fact, we have to move quickly to discuss it, finance to finance, and just see what appropriate process we can put in place to make sure there's a comfortable level by all in this Legislature and the other parties to this issue; whether it's NTI or the commission that's providing this government and the federal government with some advice. So we're taking expeditious steps to move quickly and see if, in fact, Mr. Martin will agree to determine a process for this important exercise in determining the gross expenditure base of the two territories.
