Thank you, Mr. Chair. Would I make the presumption, also, that tourism establishing a licence, would that fall also in the same category as the outfitters' licence? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Our goal through the proposed legislative changes is to harmonize this process and bring these licences together and hopefully have one licence, and I think what the attempt here is to streamline this process. So that's, I think, a good discussion that we'll be having with your committee and we'd be interested to hear your thoughts. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I move that this committee recommends that Industry, Tourism and Investment work with the Financial Management Board Secretariat to review the possibility of transferring the contract registry to the Financial Management Board Secretariat and report back to the committee on the positive and negative aspects of such a move within a definitive period of time.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I'm just wondering on that, I know in the corporate management policy legislation in communities, a portion of the budget is spent on negotiations involving devolution of land and resources from the federal government, and I know that we have other areas of the government whose sole responsibility remains devolution and resource revenue sharing. What percentage or what portion of this $6.5 million does the Department of ITI spend in that area? Thank you.

Mr. Chairman, currently we have one position that spends a portion of its time
analyzing resource development impacts related to resource development and devolution. We think that approximately $50,000 would be spent on this item. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. On the corporate shared services, I'm just wondering, from a human resource standpoint, how many staff does ITI have versus ENR staff that are located within this corporate shared services? Like, of your 78 employees, 44 of them are located here in Yellowknife, which would be where the shared services are. I'm just wondering how many of those 44 are in the shared services. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I understand there are 30 positions in the shared services finance area and they are all located in ITI, but, of course, they provide service to both ENR and ITI.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. So ENR wouldn't have any expense with these 30 employees and they provide services to both departments?

Mr. Chairman, the funding is split between ITI and ENR for the provision of these services.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. But for the budgeting process, the positions themselves are all located within ITI, none are located in ENR? Thank you.
