Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I met with the fishermen and reassured them that whenever they were ready to make recommendations and suggestions as to how I could, as a Minister and as a government, assist them in making fishing more economically viable, then I am ready as I was a year ago and two years ago to do that. They still require some time to formulate their recommendations, organize them and put them to myself as a Minister. They are working with the Member for Hay River, Mrs. Groenewegen, and when they are ready they will be coming forward with some suggestions on what I could do as a Minister to help them in pursuing their livelihood on a more economic basis. Thank you.
