Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would like to thank the Minister for his work on the emergency response service file because, indeed, he answered a lot of questions and calls from me and met with the community and sent officials over. It is still a major concern of mine that the emergency response service is not in place at the airport. I will take this opportunity to speak to the Minister about this at a later date, not today. My final followup question on the departments under the Minister's jurisdiction is with regard to his other hat, Department of Aboriginal Affairs. I believe, it is still under the Minister. Under the Department of Aboriginal Affairs, a lot of questions and comments have occurred over the continuing, ongoing self-government talks. One of the questions that we had was for the Minister to look at taking those different pots of money that are under the Executive and that is under the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs and under different departments and put them all under one hat, as it were, to help out with those types of self-government talks, mostly here in the west. I wonder if the Minister has made any movement on that area? Thank you.
