Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we know that of all the forests to be inventoried, we’ve done about a sixth of what needs to be done. Most of it focused in the Slave River Lowlands and through the Deh Cho with some small areas up the valley. We know that if we’re going to focus on regional and community-based biomass strategies and wood pellets and chips, then we’re going to have to confirm that and update it. We know that the Member and the MLA for Mackenzie Delta are doing a report based on their trip to Scandinavia to give us their best advice on how they manage forests and how they do things in a way that looks at sustainability within their context. So we’re committed to this process. There’s some basic information there, but clearly as we move forward at the value-added secondary, there’s going to have to be more work done. Thank you.
