Mr. Chairman, the concern I have in the allocation of the $210,000 which covers some 17 camps is the adequate funding for these operators to maintain a camp and also to carry out the programs on behalf of this government. As far as I am aware, it is insufficient that there is, one of the camps was mentioned in Aklavik, where an individual has approached me, who is a constituent of mine, had some real concerns in the way that he has been able to deliver a service to this government but he finds it awfully hard to maintain a business and be productive at it because of the uncertainty that you do not know one week to the next if you are going to have clients or if there is a regular cash flow where some months you may have someone, some months you may not. My question to the Minister is, what is being done to ensure that is being taken care of and that the adequate funds are made available?
