Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I can certainly provide that information to the Member, but just for clarification it was a letter from the Gwich'in Development Corporation that indicated clearly to us that they were no longer interested in being the prime contractor because their biggest supporter or biggest partner in the venture was a firm from the Yukon and they had pulled out. That was the reason why the Gwich'in no longer wanted to be the lead contractor.

Just with regard to the Aklavik Airport renovation at the airport terminal, could the Minister give me an update of what the status of that facility is? It has been on the books for some time, so I would just like to know when this project will be completed and what is the government doing to ensure that these projects are completed on time and that we don't have these delays because of people not committed to their contracts.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The contractor is currently completing some deficiencies and should have that done by July. Assuming that NavCan agrees with moving the equipment over then, we should see this project completed by mid-summer.

Could the Minister give me a total cost of the project and what is the cost overrun of the project compared to the cost when we started?

Mr. Chairman, I don't have any information on the carryovers or additional cost, but the total project cost is $425,000. I would have to get the additional information if there were any cost overruns on the project and provide it to the Member.

Can I get the information the Minister read off earlier with regard to the timelines of when we expect this to be finished, how much work was still needed to be done and the type of work that had to be done?
