Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. An amendment would not be necessary, as the settlement areas could be added by regulation, and that would have the same effect as if they were listed in this legislation. However, if he thought it would be more helpful to have a complete list right in the act, the Minister could also choose to amend the act at the appropriate time to include any future land claim settlements.
