Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. So despite the talk-down answers, we concede that these are all quite significant matters in which all Caucus Members would genuinely have an interest. The guiding principles in consensus government in the NWT by which we are all bound says under Principle Five: "Except under extraordinary circumstances, Members of the Legislative Assembly should be made aware and have opportunity to discuss significant announcements, changes, consultations or initiatives before they are released to the public or introduced in the Legislative Assembly.” Can the Minister tell us why the input of all Caucus Members was not sought on these significant matters and whether he will commit to seeking the direction of Caucus prior to future consultations with our Aboriginal Government partners? Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.
