Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I have a question for the Minister of Environment in regards to the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Act, which is the federal legislation that was passed in 1989 and came into force. It is part of the condition of that legislation that calls for an audit to be done in regards to the legislation. It was supposed to be done five years after the legislation was passed. Basically it was concluded in December of 2005, which was seven years after the legislation was passed. Mr. Speaker, it is my understanding that the recommendations that the review from that legislation is still not being implemented. I would like to ask the Minister of Environment exactly what his

department is doing in regards to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to ensure that Indian and Northern Affairs Canada is meeting its obligations under the Mackenzie Valley Resource Management Act in regards to addressing the recommendations of the NWT environmental audit report that was done in 2005.
