Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my questions are for the Minister of Justice, the Honourable Brendan Bell. Many residents in Hay River have been curious about this question, so I wanted to ask him on the public record. Awhile back, when this government was contemplating the closure of our courthouse in Hay River, a topic came up which was the subject of a resident judge for Hay River. Subsequent to that, we were very happy that the government decided that they would have a resident judge in Hay River. There was quite a bit of fanfare about the swearing in. There were a press release and an order-in-council. All of these documents indicate the residency of this judge to be Hay River; however, we haven't seen this judge yet, and we were wondering what's happening. Where is Hay River's resident judge?
