Madam Chair, I did indicate to Members earlier, and I am prepared to do it again, that that is one of the recommendations. Recommendation 3 of the working group. Specifically, how are we going to do it? I am not certain, but we will work with our officials to find a way to ensure that wherever possible in an efficient manner that is conducive to good business, to make every effort to devise a system that will ensure that local and northern businesses, local people, will be hired when our contracts are being carried out. Thank you.
