Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The reports that have been submitted do not break down into aboriginal and non-aboriginal categories. We do it by regions and by whether you are a level 1, level 2 or level 3 community. I am not certain if I can provide the information that the Member is requesting. I will have to check with the department and the corporations involved. Thank you.

Can the Minister make an attempt to see if there is a possible way of ensuring that there is some sort of way of monitoring how many aboriginal versus non-aboriginal corporations are accessing these funds?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. For the contributions that this government makes to promote, stimulate and enhance business development in the Northwest Territories, the annual report of the Business Development Fund, which is available to Members, shows a breakdown on the last page, page 8, which shows the distribution of contribution approvals by aboriginal and non-aboriginal businesses. The total contribution by the government last year was $3,064,170. Of that, $2,400,849 went to aboriginal businesses, which is about 78% of total contributions made.
