Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, in the supplementary appropriation, it is broken down. The contribution to the Aboriginal Summit for devolution negotiations is for their negotiations itself with their negotiators and their team, and a requirement to try to keep everybody on board.
We are cost-sharing this with the federal government. In some cases, it is 50/50 shared. In the case of devolution, it is 50/50 shared with the federal government, so our share is $500,000 in regard to devolution, and DIAND's contribution is $500,000 as well.
The other figure that the Member mentioned, $400,000, would be to assist the different member organizations, I believe, to travel into their area. I understand each member organization would be going to help each member organization to participate, to offset the travel cost. They will do their own research, administration support services through the Aboriginal Summit. The member organizations are the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation, the Gwich'in, the Sahtu, the North Slave Metis, the South Slave Metis and the Dogrib. This funding does not include an allocation for the Deh Cho, as they have decided to remain an observer and will not participate in the summit. However, the summit and both governments have committed to consider allocations to the Deh Cho if they decide to participate at a later date. The $400,000 is for these organizations. Thank you.
