Thank you, Madam Chair. The egg marketing regulations that fall under the Agricultural Products Marketing Act require that egg producers pay an egg marketing levy to the Agricultural
Products Marketing Council. That ratio is .016 dollars per dozen. It is a requirement that was established at the beginning when the act and the regulations were put in place. Payments to levy are met each quarter, and they’re shown as revenue, so it’s essentially a fee as part of receiving the quota for the production of eggs in the Northwest Territories. Thank you, Madam Chair.
