Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I've talked about the nature in past questioning of our minerals, oil and gas unit here at headquarters. The reality is that we have three dedicated positions to oil and gas. One is a term position that is being used to help us navigate our way through the NEB intervention and process that's underway and the other two are some that we have. One has been just recently filled, but the fact of the matter is we don't have enough resources, we are spread too thin, we do need some coordination resources here at headquarters, notwithstanding the fact that we obviously need support on the ground in Inuvik. So my approach is going to be to come forward with a strategy to add to our resources, not to further stave off already very limited manpower in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
