Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the RFP for apartments, hotels, and B and Bs was just done on Monday. We're working procurement, and we're trying to work as fast as we can to try and get that standard offer out there for accommodations. As soon as we get it, we will make sure that Members are aware of it as well as the contractors who have submitted to the bid. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, earlier in the week the Minister said we'd be seeing the standard list of values of items that'll be available for those that had damage.

Can the Minister confirm when that standard list will be available? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I said earlier that we were working on this and it's just getting finalized with the deputy minister who will be sending it to our office. And once that is done, within probably 24 hours, we'll have that information out to the pathfinders, the MLAs that are affected which is, you know, Deh Cho, Hay River North, Hay River South. So we will make sure that they have that information to them as well as the pathfinders as well as the insurance companies that we have had reach out to us. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I requested a flowchart outlining the DAP process from the Minister. Can the Minister confirm that that flowchart is being worked on and when it might be available? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It's actually convenient that the Member asked this question. We're just actually sending him a response to his email to us. So we are just finalizing it. We're working on that flowchart. We are going to have it up next week, early next week on there, but we will also make sure -- like I said, we'll make sure that Members from Deh Cho, Hay River North, Hay River South, as well as the insurance companies, have that information as well as the town and K'atlodeeche First Nation administration staff. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And the idea of that flowchart came from one of my constituents as well. It wasn't my idea.

Mr. Speaker, I would ask the Minister if he'd have time to visit Hay River with his staff to answer some of the questions that residents may have with respect to the DAP process and accommodations and mitigation. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I'm more than willing to work with the Member on this, as well as the Member from the Deh Cho. Right now our schedule is getting really, really busy, but this is an important thing, and I'm hoping that I can do it middle of next week starting Wednesday. I think that's where my schedule allows me to get in there. So, yes, I will be making that commitment to work with the Member to get in there you. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
