Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would like to echo the sentiments of my colleagues and first, thanking the Minister and his department for bringing this legislation forward. I know they've been working on it for some time. We know it almost didn't make the cut off for getting dealt with in this government because we had so much on our agendas, but it was a public priority. It was apriority of people of the Northwest Territories. That was my sense, at any rate, from the amount of input and feedback I was getting. All credit to the department for recognizing that and for doing what they could to bring this back. So I would like to thank the Minister, also his deputy and the staff of the department, who I think certainly had a personal commitment to seeing this through. I am glad that they have had that.
I do have a couple of questions and I did make a public presentation on some potential concerns that were raised with me and they really relate to the administration of the first program. The Minister did talk in his opening comments about consultation. I wanted to ask just a little bit about the advisory committee and get some understanding from the Minister as to who might make up this committee and my interest is in seeing people involve din the industry who know the business on the advisory committee. Is that the Minister's desire as well? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
