Mr. Speaker, it is federal legislation, so as a Minister in this department, the course of action we are taking is we are identifying a section in the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Act, particularly with Section 135 that deals with these guidelines that have been very vague and there's no clear process or timelines stipulated in that section. We're making suggestions to Minister Nault of DIAND that if he could establish such guidelines so that the different companies, the different proponents that want to do development in the North, such as Western Geco, will be treated in a manner that is clear, consistent and transparent. Thank you.
