Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I want to assure the Member that we already do give equal consideration to all the regions. The capital dollars, which I indicated, is a relatively small amount that the Department of Justice has, and it is for all of the Northwest Territories. The large majority of camps at this point in time are in the western NWT, and that is not the result of the department pushing this program in any particular part, but it shows more the amount of interest that communities have expressed. We are now trying to spread the work around to ensure all the other regions have an equal opportunity to be part of the program. Thank you.
