Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise on a point of order. For Members' information on Member's statement 417-13(4), Relocation of Federal Civil Servants. On October 2, 1997, the unedited Hansard on page 2307 and 2308, the Member Mr. Ootes stated, "You will recall the reason for the motion was because Cabinet was pursuing only the mineral, oil and gas functions. In the motion, Ordinary Members asked this thrust be expanded."

In case, Mr. Speaker, there is a lapse in memory, all Members of the Legislative Assembly will recall that the government had briefed Ordinary Members' Caucus on ourselves pursuing the transfer of federal employees to the Northwest Territories prior to this motion being raised in the House and prior to Mr. Ootes making his Member's statement. So, it was a thrust that the government is already pursuing so there may be a slip in memory, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
