Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the concern I have is when you are talking about a tax increase, there are some very clear numbers in terms of the amount of money that is expected to be raised. Considering the fact that the Government of the Northwest Territories is one of the biggest employers and users of hotels in the Northwest Territories and the agencies that they fund, the information is critical.

I would ask the Minister, as he looks at justifying this tax, can he speak with some certainty to the cost, and are his projections of $1.25 million accurate if he does not know how much the government is spending itself? Thank you.
