Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, the Minister is right in terms of his support staff is just going into the community. Again, he made reference to the Deline self-government to understand what it takes. I think, Madam Chair, I'd like to move it a little further in terms of going beyond... I think they know what it takes to run the Human Resources department and I'm asking...I know when they speak of implementation that it is a whole new ball of wax that when you get into implementation of the self-government agreements I'm asking if there's some consideration in the agreements that the community of Deline gets some support in terms of beginning some of the training, otherwise they'll be catching up on some of these issues. I'm not too sure how other agreements are dealt with. I know, for sure, the Tlicho are certainly far ahead of us in this area. Is there some discussion with this government as to how the Tlicho is doing with their taking over of some of the program? What are some of the things that we need to learn from the Tlicho in terms of their taking over the human resources? What are some of the things that we need to be aware of in the Sahtu when we take over our government here in terms of how do we implement it? What are some of the things we're running into? We want to avoid some of those pitfalls that we don't know about. We should look at some of these things, otherwise we're going to walk down the same path as the Tlicho people and, you know, I don't know, I haven't talked to my honourable colleague over here in terms of what's happening in the Tlicho region. That's what I'm getting at and I hope I'm conveying this clearly. That's what I wanted to ask the Minister as to create a little smoother path for our people to take over the HR department in regard to the self-government things. Thank you, Madam Chair.
