Thank you, Madam Chair. I just want to read something out here from the information we got. It says here the department's responsible for the development and maintenance of community governments responsive -- and responsible to the residents with sufficient legal authority and resources to carry out community responsibilities to provide their public programs and services essential to good community life and to deal effectively with other governments and organizations. The department is also responsible for protecting interests of consumers.

Madam Chair, I guess what I'm looking for is that -- I just want to go the issue of flooding and MACA's I guess response in how they're dealing with that in terms of mitigation and how that's going to be funded, how those mitigation measures will be funded for the community of Hay River, hopefully prior to, you know, next season to avoid any -- you know, any -- yeah, any other flooding, at least severe flooding. So, you know, what's -- I guess what are they doing, and have they identified any money for a capital budget? Because there will be, you know, berms and different initiatives that are going to be required to provide those mitigation measures. Thank you.
