Thank you, Mr. Chair. I note land acquisition and planning is part of this division of responsibility and the budget they have to deliver this. I want to just mention this is an important issue to my constituents, especially in the communities of Ndilo and Dettah. They’re particularly challenging issues because of where the land situation is right now and it’s required to be resolved with respect to establishing a land tenure in order to get the needed housing in place. Really at this time I want to mention that the North Slave office of the Housing Corporation has made considerable progress in recent months and is working hard to catch up on that in both of these communities; some exciting opportunities developing for getting that much needed housing in place this summer. I want to give a little tip of the hat to the Minister and his staff for getting that done. I would just ask, you know, I don’t know if this was a one-off or if we have semi-permanently resolved the land issues for now until they get resolved in a more permanent sense through some claims resolutions.
