Mr. Speaker, as a government or as a department, we saw the need to refocus our efforts into the areas of land use and regulatory initiatives and to maintain some of the existing programs we have in our geoscience department. I think you have to remember that the federal government is responsible for mining in the Northwest Territories and other northern territories. We will communicate your concern to the federal Minister responsible for mining. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
