Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in keeping with my Member's statement earlier today with respect to youth in our communities that are having a difficult time with certain issues, I had posed my questions previously to the Minister of Health and Social Services. I'd now like to ask some questions to the Minister of Justice on the same vein, and I hope the Minister of Justice will show a little more enthusiasm for the problem and the issue because it is very, very serious and I don't want to hear oh, there's really nothing we can do, and it's a complicated issue. I know it's a complicated issue. Mr. Speaker, as a result of a change in legislation as federally mandated regarding young offenders, has there been a decrease in the number of young offenders who have been charged and incarcerated in the Northwest Territories?
