Thank you, Mr. Chair. One of the ongoing and primary interests of aspirations of First Nations people is clearly understanding their role within the union of the NWT. I think for a long time there’s been…(inaudible)…towards development of a Constitution of the NWT. I know right now, we work within a strong link to the federal government through the NWT Act. It’s always been clearly stated by various tables that we should try to maybe spend some effort in developing a Constitution for the NWT in preparation for the ultimate road to provincehood. There are some building blocks that have been achieved. There have been efforts through the Western Constitutional Forum, the Bourque Commission, and the intergovernmental forums that had achieved at least some semblance of effort to begin the work of laying the Constitution. Would that be one of the functions of the Intergovernmental Council?
