Thank you, Minister. We’re on page 6-23, information item, Municipal and Community Affairs, community operations, active positions. Any questions?

Page 6-39, activity summary, Municipal and Community Affairs, regional operations, grants and contributions, other grants and contributions, grants, $80,000.

Mr. McLeod, if I can have you introduce your witnesses once again.

Yes, page 6-34. Grants, yes.

Thank you. Page 6-23. Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Ms. Gareau. Anything further, Ms. Bisaro?

Thank you for the comments from the deputy minister. I think that addressed some of the legislative and policy framework work that’s being done by that advisory committee. Funding is the other one. I’m wondering where they’re at with regard to funding. Will they be coming up with some recommendations? I understand the intent is to conclude that work within the coming fiscal year, if I’ve got that right. How much money are we putting into this? Is the department putting into this committee work? Thank you.

I appreciate that commitment. I think these aren’t issues that we should sit back on and let them come to us. I think the Minister is there. I look forward to his comments. These are obviously issues that we should move proactively on and take it to the people, anticipating that there will be increased interest, although we know there is interest already. I appreciate that commitment and I’ll look forward to finding out ways that I can help.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, your committee has been considering Tabled Document 62-16(4), NWT Main Estimates, 2010-2011, and would like to report progress. I move that the report of Committee of the Whole be concurred with.

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Mr. Aumond.
