Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Most of the jobs are already located in the Northwest Territories, and they are jobs where people are working for Indian Affairs in the land resources northern program side. So most of them are here already. The biggest issue we have is with salary and benefits, where there is a difference, and that is a subject of negotiation right now. Mr. Speaker, there are some that will be moving from Ottawa, but not a big, large number of employees. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
