Mr. Speaker, as I indicated earlier, our first response is that we are planning a workshop for the deputy ministers for all our departments organized by Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development and the objective is to work on an effective, cooperative model to clearly define proactive actions and respond to the Mackenzie Valley pipeline project. We plan to do that first with our deputy ministers as up to this point in time we have been monitoring what has been going on. We have been using our regional petroleum advisors to increase community awareness of what's going on, as well as listening to the communities. So we have a lot of issues and concerns raised by the communities that we're aware of, but we just wanted to do it through this exercise with our deputy ministers so that the heads of all the departments are fully involved and are aware of all the different issues that are out there so we have a truly coordinated approach on this. Thank you.
