Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, we are responsible, with the Ministry of Aboriginal Affairs, for all the aboriginal affairs in the NWT, including the area of Nunavut. However, there does not seem to be that many issues that are coming to the ministry for us to deal with. I think largely because in the Nunavut area they have a settled claim, the Nunavut Final Agreement, and the leadership there are very involved in pursuing division and the setting up of their own government in the east. This government, at the same time, through the Executive, have a Division Secretariat that concentrates solely on all the division issues. In general, that covers most of the concerns for the Nunavut in aboriginal affairs. Thank you.
