Thank you, Madam Chair. My question is regarding the communities of Detah and Ndilo and I am assuming this is the proper place to ask because it affects both capital and O and M, the way they are treated. The communities of Detah and Ndilo are one community in that they are governed by the Yellowknife Dene First Nation's chief and band council. They are trying to amalgamate the two communities into one. At the present time, they receive O and M dollars for the community of Detah, but they do not receive any for Ndilo. They have to apply piece-meal, for instance, for dollars for new roads in Ndilo and they do not have money to clean the roads in Ndilo. They are not getting dollars for recreation and this is partially because Ndilo is within Yellowknife city limits. Similarly, Ndilo used to be in the capital plan and today, if you look in here a little further on, they are not in there. At what stage is the plan to amalgamate Detah and Ndilo into one community? Thank you.
