Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I understand that the board, when it is fully operational and functional, will operate throughout the Northwest Territories, except for the Inuvialuit settlement area. Where there are claims settled, all land use and water use will be within the domain of the regional boards that are set up through the claims legislation. Where matters cross settlement areas and affect more than one region, the overall board will preside over areas where there are no claims settled. It is what I understand. Thank you.
