Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, as I mentioned earlier on to other MLAs, our responsibility as the Government of the Northwest Territories, in terms of being out on the land there is mainly through the forest management responsibilities that we have. It is limited to that. The federal government is responsible for the Crown lands and the other jurisdictions that are out there. We are aware of what is going on. We also helped different communities monitor the area. We have helped financially in the Aklavik area, in doing some monitoring of the activity that is going on in there area.

Who is out there? The federal government is out there. They have Fisheries and Oceans, who are very vigilant, as well as the Northern Affairs officers. I understand they are beefing up their office up in Inuvik to provide that service. We are aware of that and we try to keep close contact with them. Thank you.
