Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, one of the things that is pretty clear about ITI is it's a smaller department with a ton of creative people who like to do as much as they can with limited funds within the department, because it does do a lot and a tremendous of their funding does go out for grants and contributions. One of the things that they are undergoing right now is doing the Mineral Resources Act implementation, and part of that work is going to be to have to redo the job descriptions that are required in order to fully implement that Act and some of the changes that will come from the staffing to be able to respond to that. And I -- and my point in that is that there are always changes that occur within our economic opportunities within the Northwest Territories. I absolutely hear the Member, and I don't see this as a stagnant department who is not fluid or willing to evolve as the sectors evolve in the territory. And I think you see that through the work that they're doing with the MRA right now. And so I definitely see some evolutions of staffing as we go forward within the life of this Assembly. Thank you.
