Mr. Chairman, a couple of things. First of all, there probably are some employers who come into the Northwest Territories for the first time to work as subcontractors, or for short periods of time on various projects and so on, in oil and gas and other areas where we have an increasing number who are here for the first time, who may not be aware of the requirements. We want to do more to ensure they know what their obligations are on payroll tax, as well as other areas. We would like to be more visible out there, either in person or through correspondence or through phone or any way to work with these people, rather than allowing them to go along and then finding them later on. We would sooner be more proactive on that one. Thank you.
