Thank you, Madam Chair. I note that this money, the $750,000, is for the Robertson Drive dock rehab, which is in my riding. It's my understanding it is through the ICIP fund, which means at this point it's been 100 percent funded by the federal government, which I think is great. I do note, though, that it doesn't show up anywhere in the parks area. So my guessing, then, or my question for the Minister is the dock money or this money earmarked just to repair the dock that's there, or will this be an expansion to sort of the day use and other area around that? Thank you.

Thank you, Member. Minister.

Thank you, Madam Chair. No, Madam Chair, this isn't being turned into a territorial park. But there is a recognition that right now the dock that is there is quite unsafe, is being used, and so as a matter of a -- primarily a safety concern and safety issue, that's the thrust behind this. Thank you.

Thank you. Member for Great Slave.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Can the Minister tell me, then, is this a replacement of the existing dock that is there or just repairs to the dock that is there? And if it is a replacement, will the dock be larger than it is now? Thank you.

Thank you, Member. Minister of Finance.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I actually don't have confirmation as to whether it will be a full replacement or not. I'm just trying to see if I can see the detail here. But I think at this point, there was an assessment done so I just don't have the details of the project here. I'm not sure if Members of the Department of Finance have it. I'm not sure that we do, Madam Chair, sorry about that.

Thank you. Member for Great Slave.

Thank you. I'm willing to take that at a later date if the Minister could provide me with a bit of the details around the planned work. I would assume that some of that is still being figured out, but as much as I could get ahead of time, that would be great. I definitely know this will be a concern to people in the upcoming election, and they are going to want to know what use is. And I guess I just want to take the time to make a plug on behalf of my constituents and advocate for the -- whatever happens there, replacement or repair, that there is a portion of the dock that remains accessible to the public for fishing by the shore. I don't know if that has a specific name, but casting from the dock itself. I know that a lot of my constituents walk there with their children. They'll catch dinner for themselves off the dock and currently with the houseboat, or whatever it is that has been taking up half the dock for the last I don't know however many years, it has become harder and harder for people to use the area that live there. So I don't really have a question in that but just want the Minister to hear that and ensure that it's still be able to be used by residents and not just the fishers. Thank you.

Thank you, Member. Minister of Finance, did you want to comment?

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, it is just to be able to confirm that at this point it's really a repair project, and it's done -- it is in following to the recommendations that were received as part of the larger environmental -- not larger, but the environmental assessment that was done. So we've taken those recommendations and that is what we are planning to act upon, and the first round of funding is to do the planning to undertake that and just to get that going. There's still other work happening at the dock with DFO. That is DFO's that they are working on as to whether or not this could be a site for a small craft harbour but that -- again, that responsibility lies with DFO. For now, recognizing the use as already described, it is quite clear that this is unsafe, and so those repairs do need to get done. Thank you.

Thank you. Member for Great Slave.

Thank you for that. And I do appreciate that it's a weird one with the double jurisdictions and such, but it would be a great area, I'll put the plug in again, for some sort of recreational use.

Can the Minister at least confirm that the houseboat will be removed and that it will no longer be allowed to be anchored at the dock, which really is inhibiting industry and recreational use. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you. Minister.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Not strictly in my capital books but I can say that my understanding last I heard was that the boat in question, or whatever it is in question, had, in fact, been ticketed and that, you know, obviously, enforcement measures do need to then be taken and those enforcement measures can be, I believe, up to and including removing forcibly. That is some cross-jurisdictional but I can follow up again with the Member directly. That certainly is not lost on me the challenges that vessel was creating. Thank you.

Thank you. Member for Great Slave.

Thank you. You don't have any further questions? Okay. Thank you. Member for Frame Lake.

Yeah, thanks, Madam Chair. The Robertson Drive dock, I'd like to know whether that's within the surface lease area that Miramar Con has. Thanks, Madam Chair.

Thank you. Minister of Finance.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I don't believe it is, Madam Chair. Thank you.

Thank you. Member for Frame Lake.

Yeah, I guess belief is one thing, but I guess I'd want a definitive answer. My concern is that the property is still under active remediation as far as I understand. And I'm just wondering what responsibility, if any, does Miramar Con have for remediation of the dock. Thanks, Madam Chair.

Thank you. Minister of Finance.
