Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Could we get an indication of how, first of all, I do not want to call something by the wrong name. What is it that people get, is it a permit or a licence or what when they are allowed to do some logging in certain areas?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If people get permission to harvest for one year it is referred to as a permit. If it is for multiple years, it is referred to as a licence.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Yes, anyone can apply. There is a review process and consultation process that they would have to satisfy.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Do the neighbouring communities in that particular region have to consent to permits or licences being granted? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. No, not necessarily, but they have to be consulted, but it is not required that they consent.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. When the deputy minister is saying that anybody can apply, does this include a company from the south can come and apply and get a permit or a licence in the Northwest Territories to harvest logs?

Anyone can apply, but that does not necessarily mean they will get a licence. As I mentioned, it goes
through an internal review in the department and also goes through a consultation process with the affected communities and organizations. Beginning this year, it will have to go through the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Board. Anyone can apply, but whether they get a licence or not depends on a number of factors.

Yes. There are two companies that are considered southern. One is from Alberta that is harvesting in the Cameron Hills area. This is the last year of a five- year permit. The other is a company from Nelson, BC, who are in a joint venture with the community of Nahanni Butte, it is a joint venture, but the principal company is from Fort Nelson.
