Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In the whole area of cost saving to this government, this probably will be a cost-saving initiative where a lot of inmates and young offenders are sent to southern facilities, because we do not have any facilities
in the Inuvik region for such an event. There has been $50,000 spent with regard to the whole proposal to date. There has been a proposal drafted which it was approved by the Department of Justice at one time. I would like to ask the Minister again, in light of the consideration of looking at saving money for this government, would he consider relooking at this proposal with the possibility of a new method of dealing with inmates, keeping them at home, because of the cultural aspect he made reference to in his statement? It is important to keep the people as close to home as possible. Will the Minister consider relooking at this and if it is a question of cost, can he sit down with the different parties to try to resolve that?
