Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister responsible for the NWT Power Corporation, Mr. Handley. Mr. Speaker, under the existing NWT Power Corporation Act, under section 8(3), the board shall direct the business of the corporation and may exercise its power to perform those duties under the Corporation Act and regulations. Also, Mr. Speaker, it states under section 4 that the board, in exercising its power in performing its duties and the powers and duties of the corporation under the act and regulations, shall act in accordance with the direction of policy guidelines that may be in place from time to time and issued by the Executive Council.
My question to the Minister is, a lot of time and emphasis was put on the Robertson report in regard to looking at energy in the Northwest Territories, looking at alternatives and trying to find ways of ensuring that we have a secure, safe source of power and energy in the Northwest Territories. I would like to ask the Minister, why is it that this government has not taken the Robertson report, which was tabled in this House in November, and basically proceeded to implement that report?
