Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Then I'd like to move on to the next section in the same topic area, where it states under section 7.6.6, it says that the GNWT is responsible for enforcing any fines or imprisonment order for violation of Tlicho law. So in reaching that and reading that with what has been stated here so far, I'm understanding that the Tlicho government will enact laws in certain specified areas, and that they would prosecute any violators under that law in the GNWT courts, and that the GNWT will be responsible for enforcing it. I read from that that the Tlicho citizens, if they are found to be in violation of the law and they are prosecuted, will end up in the GNWT correctional system. So I'm just wondering why this is the way it is. Is it a question of lack of resources, or is that the intention of the Tlicho government, and further what sort of agreement is there with the GNWT Department of Justice or the court system as to how to implement this in practice? Thank you.
