Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, as I indicated earlier, we are talking about numbers of contracts and there is a high number of contracts that go to negotiated. The number is 4.3 percent for negotiated, and for sole-sourced we are looking at about 53 percent. In sole-sourced, we are talking about the type of contracts that are going to the smaller communities, such as for airport maintenance type of contracts, where there is no other contracts in the communities. Perhaps gravel hauling, cars operation that most of the communities have now. See, these are all sole-sourced to the municipalities, so there is a high number of them, but if you compare it to the value of the contracts, only 22.6 percent of $36 million has gone to sole-source. So you are looking at a lot of very small contracts going out throughout the north.

In comparison to that, 60.4 percent of the total value of $36 million goes to public tender. So you are looking at a few large contracts, and on the other hand, you are looking at many small sole-sourced and negotiated contracts. Thank you.
