Thank you, Mr. Speaker. There's no doubt with the pace of resource development in the Northwest Territories that we have to be prepared for it and the WCB has to be prepared for it. I know this is something that the Board of Governors has been discussing. Obviously, there's going to be a lot of work related to oil and gas, related to mining in the future, and we do have to have a plan of action for being able to deal with that and make sure that our legislation is prepared and up to snuff and that the organization is able to handle the increased workload. I think anything that can further that goal makes sense. Again, I'm certainly willing to sit down and discuss that with the committee as we move forward. Thank you.
