Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, I do not see it as a problem. I believe we can establish a priority list immediately. We will set that as part of our next task. Thank you.

Question 108-14(3): Consolidation Of Youth Program Information June 29th, 2000
Question 104-14(3): Funding Source For Youth Programs June 29th, 2000
Mr. Speaker, I am sorry, I could not provide that information at the moment. As I said earlier, we are still trying to find out the funding agencies and what is available to the public. Thank you.
Question 104-14(3): Funding Source For Youth Programs June 29th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. At this moment, I can only advise the Member that they should inquire to the various departments, specifically to their interest. We are trying to compile this information so we can disseminate it to various members of the communities. At this point, that is all that we can really do. Thank you.
Question 104-14(3): Funding Source For Youth Programs June 29th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Currently, I would advise them to contact our executive assistant, Mr. Tom Williams, to inquire about the information necessary to apply at the various departments for funding. Thank you.
Question 104-14(3): Funding Source For Youth Programs June 29th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we have tried to compile all the information on the number of funding agencies with the various departments. Unfortunately, to this date, we have not. We had projected that perhaps we will have that ready by September 1st, but it is an ongoing process.
Our executive assistant has been working with the social envelope group to try to compile that information and present it at a later date. Thank you.
Question 103-14(3): Funding For Students Against Drinking And Driving June 29th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, I can confirm the Member's question. I have and will approach other provincial and federal counterparts to keep our strong lobby effort going to ensure that this conference becomes a success. It is important to the Northwest Territories as well as other jurisdictions across Canada who will continue to work with our Members here in the House, and our departments to ensure that we have fun and complete this fine effort. Thank you.
Question 103-14(3): Funding For Students Against Drinking And Driving June 29th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It is my pleasure to inform the Member today that we have sought financial income support to be provided to the Yellowknife chapter of SADD.
As the Minister responsible for Youth, I have asked that we get the response back by today, June 30th. As of yesterday, I am pleased to advise the Member that we have received, from the Department of Transportation, $10,000 plus income support. We also received confirmation from Education, Culture and Employment of another $10,000. We expect to have some form of inclined proportional support from the Department of Finance.
We will continue to work and seek more financial assistance from other participating departments.

Item 1: Prayer June 28th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I do wish to point out that when I said the question was misleading, I did not intend to imply that Mr. Krutko had done anything misleading. If that has offended the Member, I would gladly withdraw my remarks. To clarify for the record, Mr. Speaker, I think Mr. Krutko and I have a different interpretation of the issue that was being discussed at the time. That is probably a better way to describe the incident. Thank you.

Question 87-14(2):housing Corporation Adherence To The Business Incentive Policy June 27th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I am just trying to relate to the Member that we are trying to work with the Government of Alaska to develop greater economic ties and relations.
I believe we are still fairly new at this. I want to assure the Member we will promote northern manufactured products wherever we can in our projects that are being built up in Alaska through the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation. Thank you.
Question 87-14(2):housing Corporation Adherence To The Business Incentive Policy June 27th, 2000
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I did not infer that. I will restate my position, we are marketing all the northern manufacturers' products in all of our projects, whether they are in the Northwest Territories or the Alaska projects. All those things we did not see where the northern manufactured products would be a requirement under Alaska projects because we treat it in terms of international trade. Thank you.
