Thank you, Mr. Chair. Adding my comments here to the motion, I can't see myself supporting this motion on the basis of we shouldn't be using previous experiences, considering the fact that rights issuance were issued on a lot of these sites as identified in schedule 7, which we seem to be reflecting on this department for the downfalls of somebody else's mistakes. This is a new department, and given the fact that it just got incorporated here with devolution taking effect in 2014 of April 1st, I think we should straighten out our management systems, give some ministerial discretion, and learn from the past so that it's not repeated. We're inheriting these sites which we are looking at to remediate or reclaim and learn from that and move on; and in the process of what we can reclaim or what we can remediate, let's see if we can create some economic development in the process of cleaning up somebody else's mistakes. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
