Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as the Member has pointed out the objective of the program is to encourage the development of arts in the Northwest Territories. I am not aware of grants being given to individuals or groups who are outside of the territories. The information I have shows all of the contributions as having a municipality located in the territories beside the recipients name. I am not sure if there is a specific instance the Member wishes me to look at. All I can say is the Arts Council recommends to me who should receive these awards and I would expect they would have some basis or background for making their recommendation. If there is some specific instance the Member would like me to investigate, I would be happy to do that. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
