Thanks, Mr. Chair. I think it's probably fair for me to say that the Protected Areas Strategy, or what was known as the Protected Areas Strategy, has languished somewhat over the last couple of years. I understood that there was a renewed push to try to complete this network of protected areas. It's in the mandate for the 18th Assembly and I know that the Minister -- it might have been the previous Minister -- made announcements about renewed effort to try to get this moving again and so on. I know the position was vacant, but how can we, you know, say on one hand we're interested in trying to reinvigorate this effort while we're cutting a position? It just doesn't make any sense. So I probably need to hear from the Minister on this one rather than the staff people. I would appreciate a response. Thanks, Mr. Chair.
