Mr. Speaker, we would be prepared to sit down with committee and talk about legislative priorities. It is not something the committee has raised as one of the top priorities of the government from their perspective. So we have a number of legislative initiatives that need to be undertaken. There are a number of things that we need to do and know we can't get done in this government. As I have indicated, there is some past history here. For cost-saving measures, we have moved away from this. Locksmithing is a trade. It is not a certified trade yet in the NWT. It was pulled together with the security profession to give it some sort of critical mass. I don't know how many locksmiths there would be in the Northwest Territories, but only a few. That is why it was bundled with this other profession, Mr. Speaker. We would be prepared to sit down with the committee and talk about legislative priorities. If this is something we would like to pass on to the next government as a must do and urgent, then we can send that direction. But I would want to talk to committee about that. Thank you.
