Thank you, Madam Chair. I have a question on a separate item and it has to do with the extra resources that the department is asking for the property assessment. I do believe this has been an ongoing issue in the department for a while and there have been efforts for a long time to speed up the process with respect to getting the assessments done in the communities especially, I believe. Having said that, I just wanted to ask a question to the Minister about something I have heard about. There is some talk out on the street that there is going to be a major move on the part of MACA to reassess the mining properties in the Lac de Gras area or Slave province. I'd like to get confirmation from the Minister as to whether or not this is, indeed, the plan and whether that is the reason why these additional positions are being asked for. Thank you.
