Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for Mr. Ng. It is concerning the Department of Justice. I have had businessmen in Yellowknife calling about inmates selling crafts at the correctional centre in town here. They have pointed out that the inmates do not have to pay overhead while they are selling their crafts, while the businessmen in town that have businesses that sell crafts have overhead. They have stores, they have to pay their staff, all the rest of this kind of stuff. What I would like to know is whether this is actually happening or not, that the inmates are allowed to sell crafts at the YCC? Thank you.
