Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We are dealing with some rumour and misinformation. The facts, as I understand them to be, are a note was passed to the Member for Hay River, a note that did not come from the government side nor from any Minister. I understand the Member for Hay River called the RCMP in to investigate whether a Minister did or did not and that is the reason they were here as I understand it. The Department of Justice has no authority or any control over the way the RCMP conducts its investigation. In fact, on the contrary, we make sure we stay out of any perception that we may be interfering with their investigations.
The prosecution side of justice belongs in the hands of the federal government. They have their own shop here in Yellowknife and they deal with that side. The Government of the Northwest Territories has nothing to do with that. I understand from the Member's question that someone, here again we do not know who, was concerned with the fact that the RCMP came here to the Legislative Assembly. Again, that was not the government. The government was not the someone. Thank you.
