Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, in regard to the number of vacancies within the government, I would like to ask the Minister, since we have so many vacancies in our community and it seems like we are lapsing these positions every year where we are not filling them, I would like to ask the Minister, is there a possibility that communities that do not have a renewable resource officer within the community -- I will use Tsiigehtchic for an example. That community has been requesting a renewable resource officer for some time. They are also in the line of the pipeline. They are going to be impacted by development.

I would like to ask the Minister, will the Minister considering the vacancies within your department, the money is not being expended to fill those positions, so will you consider looking at the possibility of ensuring that personnel like renewable resource officers are implemented into those communities that do not have it in place to date? So that they can have someone in their community to assist them on renewable resource issues.
