Thank you. I will read the rule here. I did not mean to annoy you, Mr. Krutko. On page 26 of the Rules of the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories in 79(1) time limits on speaking. No Member shall speak for more than ten minutes at any one time in committee of the whole. Speaking for more than once, (2), that is under 79 again, subject to the discretion of the Chair, underline the word discretion of the Chair, a Member may speak for more than once to a matter under discussion, but not until every Member wishing to speak has spoken. I have indicated earlier that every Member was given an opportunity to review and debate the activities summary, directorate, every Member was given that opportunity. I have stated I will recognize any Member who has not spoken yet to this activity summary, however, those Members who have not spoken, I will not recognize them but on subsequent pages I will give them every opportunity to speak. That was my ruling earlier. When we went back to page 5-6, directorate, which was reviewed, debated and concluded, Mr. Krutko, I recognized you five times in that matter that should have been concluded and was concluded earlier. I gave you five opportunities to speak to the matter which was concluded that we went back to. You have no point of order, Mr. Krutko. Mr. Steen.
