Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Your committee has been considering Tabled Document 9-17(4), NWT Main Estimates, 2013-2014, and would like to report progress with four motions being adopted, and that consideration of Tabled Document 9-17(4) is concluded, and that the House concur in those estimates, and that an appropriation bill to be based thereon be introduced without delay. Mr. Speaker, I move that the report of Committee of the Whole be concurred with.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Has the government and has the Minister ever contemplated an outside review of positions by department to ensure that we are not overstaffed in various departments? Thank you.

Okay. If I can direct your attention back, please, to the summary page for the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Page 13-7, Environment and Natural Resources, department summary, operations expenditure summary, $71.565 million.
