Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yesterday the Minister of Environment and Natural Resources tabled a document on "Waste Resource Management Strategy" and potential economic and environmental benefits resulting from household, commercial, and industrial sources at municipal landfill sites. Mr. Speaker, the strategy complements the many inventory studies completed, in particular a technical report waste inventory dated November 15, 2013, for the Sahtu communities.
Given this pre-cost inventory assessment report and avoiding waste hazard materials potentially entering into the community watersheds, this would be a meaningful portion of the action plan if initiated. Mr. Speaker, execution of the strategy would provide a variety of economic benefits and waste safety training, packaging, disposals, and the Waste Resource Management Strategy is linked to the NWT Water Stewardship Strategy Action Plan.
As you can see, Mr. Speaker, implementing this strategy in collaboration with other communities only complements our government's mandate, cleaner community environment, while providing meaningful business and economic opportunities. Mr. Speaker, later I will have questions for the appropriate Minister. Mahsi.
