Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It would be good to have those agreements in place so that you could use the summer transportation season and construction season to alleviate some of the core needs in a community like Lutselk'e. There is a great need right now as we speak.

Getting back to the corporation wanting to get out of the public housing, and they have been doing that for a few years now, we are seeing that the public housing that they are giving up are old buildings that require renovations. Some of them require major renovations.

I spoke about this in the House during question period and suggested strongly that the housing authority at the community level in those communities that do not have a lumber store or business people to act as contractors, that the housing authority in those communities may play that role.

Has the department and the Minister given it some more thought? It would be nice to have a positive response to that suggestion in the form of a program supported by a policy. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
