Thank you, Mr. Chair. As part of our energy priority investments, our alternative energy priority investments, we’ve identified biomass as probably one of the biggest and most important parts of this initiative and this is something that we’ve identified significant investments over the three years of the $5 million and we’re working and participating with the Department of ENR on the development of a draft Biomass Strategy. We are also participating in the Biomass Working Group. For your information, or you may already be aware, this group includes representation from the Government of the Northwest Territories departments, the Arctic Energy Alliance and the federal government. I don’t want to get into the details at this point because the strategy is scheduled to be released in the next few weeks, but I’d like to reassure the Member that there is a component in the Biomass Strategy which includes working with the private sector and further development of the biomass market in the Northwest Territories and ITI will be participating in these actions. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
