Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the department's major concern is safety and it does not matter on what highway. Safety is always the major concern. As far as the department's plans to invest in Highway No. 4, I indicated to the Members some of the reasons why we are doing this. It is for safety. It is to allow for traveling by the tourist outfits on that highway. It is for safety for the local people who live on that route. It is for the safety of people who go down that route and on into the mines or on into whatever they do from Tibbett Lake on. It is for safety that we plan to do some improvements on that highway. The department has identified that one section of highway as having one of the worst geometric conditions, which definitely needs improving.
