Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as the Government of the Northwest Territories we are very aware of the different regions in the Northwest Territories and the debate and discussions that go on in the Intergovernmental Forum and other forums of this nature that talk about capacity building in the communities and in the regions. We are fully aware that there is a need by this government to put more focus and emphasis into the regions. The message is that we have to look at the regions and consolidate the development of the different regions. There is a focus on it by this government. It is not necessarily a policy, but is a direction that this government is going in at the present time. There is an emphasis that we need to put more resources into the regions and try to get the regions to be stronger and more cohesive. Yes, we are working in that direction. Thank you.
