Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’d just like to ask the Minister, 2008 is not very far away, but the people have been talking about that for two or three years now, even maybe further, Mr. Speaker. So I appreciate the 2008 possibility, but can the Minister provide me with a copy of the inspection report that may be conducted since March? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Once again, Mr. Speaker, I’d like to ask the Minister on whether, like I said, we’re on year one of construction of units, so I’m just wondering, can the Minister indicate to me whether, say in Tuktoyaktuk that the gravel that they need to build these units is available right now. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of NWT Housing Corporation. We are in year one of a three-year plan to accommodate or build, construct 530 units, whether they’re multi-plex or homeownership, across the Northwest Territories.

I’d like to ask the Honourable David Krutko, the Minister of NWT Housing Corporation, can the Minister tell me whether access and stockpiling of granular material for the construction of building lots is part...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My next question for the Minister is, like I said earlier, we’re probably going to get 180-plus coming this year. I’m just wondering, those communities without lot development are in, if they can’t find suitable lands, say, with claimant groups, what will happen to those units? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the riding of Nunakput is in dire need of granular material to address their infrastructure needs in my constituency. The access to gravel in most of my constituency can only be accessed during the winter. It may take at least six months to be able to access a quarry site because of different legislations. An example is Inuvialuit land administration.

Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Deputy Premier and the Minister of the NWT Housing Corporation announced that a total of $100 million will be spent to construct 530 adequate and affordable housing units over the...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to recognize the one and only person that I really love in the House up here today is my wife, Lucille Pokiak. Beside her is Barry Jacobson, my nephew. Thank you very much.
