Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In the discussions we had with the Interim Commissioner last week, the basic agreement was that we would try to keep contracting out to a minimum. As much work as possible would be done by the Nunavut government on day one. Those of us who are working on this file, all know that would not be possible. At this point in time, our employees in Nunavut, in the new Nunavut government to be, new deputies and our deputies here are working on a document which will assess the capacity of what the new Nunavut government will have, subtracted from the services required which will equal what needs to be contracted out. We expect the list to be available to us in July.
The basic answer to that is, one, we want to keep it at a minimum and two, we want to make sure that the accountability or the control will rest with the Nunavut government and whatever arrangements are made, that there is an agreement signed with the GNWT, for example, that the GNWT would have its say in the signing of a contract. Thank you.
