Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I do not know how we got to this point because the Social Programs Committee had received a submission from the Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated joint submission and the Social Programs Committee was supposed to take a closer look at their submission to see if there was any merit to some of the arguments they put forward and whether there might have to be some amendments made. We have not done that yet. I do not quite know how we got into this situation because while there has been a letter written to NTI, the Social Programs Committee has not taken another look at this submission to see whether some of the points that have been made should be included for amendments or whatever. I would like to ask that we do not proceed with the clause-by-clause of this bill until we have had time to adequately look at the submission that was put forward by NTI. Thank you.
