Yes, thanks, Mr. Chair. I will just read a quick quote from the review board. The board found that the so-called whole-of-government approach, and this is the quote, "has limited the ability of evidence and expertise from GNWT departments about the potential impacts, concerns, and mitigations on issues within their respective mandates and jurisdictions." That, to me, is pretty damning. That is not coming from me. That is coming from the review board, so I want to encourage the Minister, and I think he is made a commitment before that he is going to review how this policy has been working. I think it has failed this government twice now, and I don't agree with Mr. Hagen's assessment. If we maybe had provided better advice to the proponent, better advice to the land and water board, maybe TerraX might be out there exploring right now. I think we can and should be doing a lot better, and that policy is not working. Is the Minister prepared to review that policy and share that with the standing committee? Thanks, Mr. Chair.
