The department has been entering into community transfer agreements for some time. We have been working with Municipal and Community Affairs to make the transfer agreements more generic, so they are more consistent with agreements other departments are utilizing between the community and the departments. I gave my Minister incorrect information earlier. I apologize for that. The community transfer agreements are not for a specified period. They are in place until they are amended by the parties. We asked the hamlet if they would be prepared to enter into a new agreement called a community empowerment agreement that was more consistent with what was being done across the government. It was the intent in making a change to one of consistency rather than having an agreement that reflected the needs of only one department. Thank you.
