Mr. Speaker, I’d like to ask the Minister if he could maybe direct his staff to avoid making those comments and to clarify that the position of this government is that negotiated contracts are the responsibility of Cabinet, not someone in the field, and that decision is made at the Cabinet table. I think it sends the wrong message and then you wonder why we’re having problems in the Inuvik region. I’d like to ask the Minister if he’d personally get involved or get his deputy involved to talk to the staff and notify them that they should not be making those comments to political leaders in light of we have a policy in place and they should be following these policies.
