Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We do have an existing NWT manufacturing directive that was spawned out of the Business Incentive Policy. That directive still is in existence and basically NWT manufacturers can apply for recognition as an approved NWT manufacturer and, at that time, the government would make it a priority for purchasing. As well, under the new SEED program, we have written to the standing committee and asked them for direction as to what should be established as priorities. One of the possibilities that we have identified was manufacturing in the Northwest Territories should be designated as a priority sector to be developed. We are still waiting for a response. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
