Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the information I have is that in October, 2001, the then Minister and the Minister of Health and Social Services and the respective deputies, as well as the North Slave MLA and a MACA superintendent and municipal engineer, all attended a council meeting to review the water source option. It was decided that the...(inaudible)...for Marion Lake and Russell Lake be taken to cover a period of time over the whole year, whereby different turbulence would be able to be analyzed. As well, specific sites identified by elders as to where preferred sources would be located were also indicated.
The department has not moved away from this approach. We are still awaiting a Public Works and Service report from the consultants as to the results of these studies. I believe that some samples are still to come this spring, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
