At this time, the department's priorities of enforcing, addressing unauthorized occupancy. The Member should know about that. There are over 550 unauthorized occupancies within the North Slave area, so we need to focus where our energy needs to be focused on, and that is unauthorized occupancy. I have inherited it. It is over 50 years of work, so work has to be done. Yes, I understand there're some challenges here, but we need to work on what our focus is. If the department receives complaints about using a cabin that is a cabin that is inconsistent with the purpose stated in a lease agreement, the department will follow up on a case-by-case basis. If the Member wants to bring forth concerns that people are not using these leases properly, please bring it to the department, and we will address it. We will work on that. We want to make sure people use public land properly. If the Member has these concerns and he's saying there's a whole bunch of people not using the leases properly, please bring them forward, and we will be more than willing to address them. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
