Yes. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the information we have is the contract has been awarded but there was an environmental issue holding up the project. That could be it. I do not know that for sure, but I can find out. It must wait until spring of 2017 to continue the project, which is like right now. But the environmental issue, I will have to find out exactly what that is and let you know, Mr. Blake.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Under community health programs, if I may question that area, there is a line for sobering centre, Yellowknife, $100,000. I am just wondering if the Minister can provide details on this project to date? Thank you.

Thank you to the Minister for that answer. What is the nature of this investment? I am sorry if I missed that. We are not talking about building a new building, here? Are we making additional space to an existing asset? What are we approving, here? Thank you.

Mr. Chair, my understanding is that we are still trying to identify the site that has a building on it, and the $100,000 would more or less go for improvements to the site that is identified, once it is identified. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
