Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We probably have that, but it is not readily available here. We can provide that to the Member. As far the Deh Cho and the Liard Valley, we have indicated to the operators that apply for timber permits in those areas that within a year or two of their initial operations that we expect to see some evidence they are going to start processing and cutting rough lumber, for instance, in the north as a condition of license renewal in the future. We are trying discourage the notion they can come in, cut the timber and ship south. We want some jobs created. We want to see some finished product or semi-finished product processed in the north before shipping south. Thank you.
