Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I cannot speak to that today, because of the fact that there would be some additional financial requirements required if we were to position a judge outside of Yellowknife, where there are no support facilities. Or outside of Iqaluit, for that matter, where the other territorial court judge resides. The first thing that would have to be worked out is whether or not the territorial judge appointee could be appointed on an interim basis until March 31st, 1999. I understand that is an issue that is not clear right now. We are having research done to make sure that it is allowable and acceptable by the judges. Thank you.
