Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As Members are fully aware, all Members of this Legislative Assembly have said in the past that we have to look at the affirmative action policy and readdress the affirmative action policy. We still have something like 31 to 34 percent aboriginal people in our civil service. It seems to have hit a certain percentage and stalled, so we have to look at the policy. The affirmative action policy is a concern of all Members, including Cabinet. Not whether it is being implemented the way it is but whether it works or not. That is why we have agreed to look at it and rewrite it and work with Members of this House to redraft a new affirmative action policy. We have agreed to that and we are doing that work. Thank you.
