Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My understanding is in the next six weeks leading up to the Nunavut Leaders meeting that the bureaucracies of the GNWT and the new Nunavut government are working on an assessment of what capacity the Nunavut government will have. Lists will be made available at the Nunavut Leaders meeting and shared with those concerned. It will be up to the Interim Commissioner's office to decide whether it will be the GNWT that does some particular work. Whether it will be other governments like Manitoba, Alberta, Quebec and Ontario who already do some contract work at this time and/or whether private businesses will be asked to bid on the work, so it is really up to the Interim Commissioner's Office, at this point and in six weeks' time. Thank you.
