Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just would like to speak to this briefly. The committee was also cognizant that we did receive correspondence from the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs and the NWT Association of Communities expressing some concerns about the recommendation that came from the Chief Electoral Officer on this subject. To us, that just flagged that this needs some more work and a discussion amongst these different organizations. I think there are probably some good opportunities for collaboration and coordination amongst them, whether having the Chief Electoral Officer run municipal elections, I'm not sure that that's one option, but there may be other ways to do this. What we wanted to do was to open the door here for further discussion to take place and that's, I think, what this motion will do. Thanks, Mr. Chair.
