Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The lands administration review that was done outlined a number of significant areas that needed to be looked at in terms of catch up in the backlog of leasing and lease invoicing. Procedures needed to be developed and staff trained in those procedures. We need to take a look at some of our policies in place in terms of land pricing and land lease only, and a number of other ones. As a result of that, the first step in the work plan that we are talking about, which is largely internal, is working with all the regional staff as well as headquarters to get a handle on each of the areas where problems have been identified, is to get a handle on the number of leases that are out there that need to be updated, in terms of getting accurate information on invoicing and being behind in invoicing, and doing land transfers and those kinds of things. When the report was done, that kind of data was not available. We need that kind of data in terms of putting together a final overall strategy that we can then take forward to discuss with the Minister, or with Cabinet, or with the standing committee, or the communities.

Over the summer, the primary focus of our work is developing the database of accurate information that is going to tell me whether I have 2,000 leases or 2,500 exactly. A lot of that is working on the inventory system. A lot of it requires staff in the field to be going through various boxes and databases and getting that kind of information gathered for us. That is the internal work that is going on for the next two months. Once that is done, then we will be able to put together an accurate estimate on the time it might take to fix certain components, and then, depending on the volumes, looking at the magnitude and options of possible solutions. Thank you.
