Mr. Speaker, we are still in the process of determining how we are going to procure those particular contracts. There has been no decision made yet. We look at all the information we get. Again I say, if we get two or more letters for a negotiated contract, one of them may have the Member’s support, one may not. How do we determine? The thing is, the contractors now all have the ability. Again, it goes back to policy. The purpose of the policy is to allow those contractors that are just starting up, trying to get their foot in the door, an opportunity to do so. If they prove that they are able to do the work and they are able to bid in a competitive market, then we have fulfilled our obligation. We are starting to see more and more local contractors that are doing that. They are competing with contractors from outside the community. They are given preferential treatment just for being situated in the community. It is a 5 percent preferential treatment, 15 percent northern, so they have proven that they are able to compete. I can assure the Member that no decision has been made on these particular ones that he is filed the letters on. We will have a look at them. It will be at ministerial discretion. I will be able to make a
recommendation to Cabinet as to whether we proceed or not with the negotiated contract. Thank you.
