Thank you, Mr. Chair. This is a fund that we use to work with Aboriginal governments. Instead of dealing with individual meetings, we split it out amongst the seven Aboriginal governments. I believe they are all in the neighbourhood of $50,000. So this year we parcelled it out amongst all the Aboriginal governments and the money has all been given out. Once it’s approved, it will be. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I was going to say as soon as possible, but I think a better idea is it’s our intention to meet with the office of the Auditor General to get more background and insight into his recommendations. I would expect that probably within six months we will be able to have some idea with where we’re going with this. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, I do, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. My previous view was that I thought we had sufficient oversight. We have an audit committee that is chaired by a number of deputies and involves the Audit Bureau. We have a number of other checks and balances. I communicated that to committee; committee felt that was unacceptable. We agreed with committee and are taking steps to provide the necessary oversight to address all of those shortfalls that the Member has read out to us. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, I do, Mr. Chair.

There could be a number of different ways to do it. I think, first and foremost, we have to decide on which approach we’re going to take. If we take a delegated approach, then we have some discussion paper approach we could have. We are working on one outlining our perspective with regard to land use, so sustainability framework. Similarly, if we go with mirror legislation or through the MVRMA, I think there will be limited opportunity to change it because of the fact that it’s premised on land claim agreements. I think the best avenue would be through our Land Use Sustainability Framework...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The Native Women’s Association is moving and so the money is moved from a contribution to a grant, I believe. It’s the same dollar amount; it’s just how it’s broken out. Thank you.

Mr. Chair, the Member is correct; that is our expectation. Right now implementation planning will sunset 2013-14 and April 1, 2014, is the effective date. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

This is something that has been a priority of this government. We work very closely with the Canadian Association of Small Businesses that see red tape as a hindrance to making progress, so we are working through our Refocusing Government Committee of Cabinet. Mr. Chair, I’d like to ask the chair of that committee to provide further information. I’d ask the Minister of Finance to provide more detail. Thank you.

Mr. Chair, we have no criteria right now. What we have done is we have requested deputies to identify potential areas that perhaps could be eligible for decentralization at some point. We are doing some work, identifying inventories of office space and housing that is available throughout the Territories. We are getting requests from MLAs that we should decentralize immediately.

I have indicated that we are going to work with committee. Certainly, for those centres that have office space and houses, the likelihood is that we probably could move fairly quickly, but we are going to work with...
