Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the Member is correct. We did a significant amount of work on this in the previous Assembly, where legislation was actually passed to allow us to support human and tissue donation. In the Northwest Territories it was agreed at that time that given the magnitude of the project and the small size of the jurisdiction it made more sense to actually cooperate and join with Alberta on their registry. They have far greater capacity than us. We had actually entered into negotiations with them at that time and had some dollars set aside and allocated to support this project.
Unfortunately, they had an election, at which point they had a significant change in leadership in the province and asked us to defer, or rather they chose to defer the negotiations until they were a little bit more stable and set up. We've been looking to them to reinitiate those negotiations. We were hoping that we might make a little bit of progress last fiscal year. We did insofar as they said, yes, we're ready to start talking and we're looking to move forward with actually our inclusion in their registry in the 2017-18 fiscal year. It is a negotiation process. There is a bunch of work that needs to be done, some boxes to check off, but we're feeling pretty good that we should be able to get that work done in 2017-18, and open the registry up for residents of the Northwest Territories. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
