Thank you, Madam Chair. We do consult but, at this point in time, I'll actually have one of the people who are part of the process, Mr. Hall, actually explain so everybody understands our role with all Indigenous governments, and particularly with DFN. Thank you, Madam Chair. Through your permission, of course.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Just to clarify, there is a separation between the Public Land Act and land use planning. Land use planning occurs through a separate process, and, in each of the areas where we are conducting land use planning, Indigenous governments in those areas are highly consulted and are part of the planning process. As an example of the Gwich'in and Sahtu plans, they are also an approving party to the plan. Through the Dehcho process right now, there is planning work going on and the Dehcho First Nations are part of that process. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
