Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am the Minister responsible for dealing with the diamond evaluation facility and for dealing with BHP on an overall basis. We have been working with federal officials in regard to trying to get as much as possible, both political and bureaucratic commitment to locate a diamond evaluation facility here in the Northwest Territories. We believe we are doing as much as we can under the circumstances to assure northern people that it will be located here in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
