Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I wish to table the following document entitled "Follow-up Letter for Oral Question 385-18(3): Community Landfills and Waste Disposal." Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I am not sure of the exact detail. I would have to have a conversation, or we would have to have a conversation with Infrastructure to see what their scope might include. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Of course, Cabinet is aware of the impacts of family violence across the Northwest Territories. Both sides of the House are aware of the negative impacts of family violence across the Northwest Territories. If there are opportunities for us to put some resources to some of the programs to help combat, then, we would be unwise not to. We have heard one of the Members talk before about the percentage that family violence has come down in some particular communities, and I would like to think that is a result of people in the communities starting to take action but, in some cases, there may be...

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. I believe there's a small that's allocated in the capital estimates. I'm not exactly quite sure what the number is, but, as we get into the debate on the capital estimates, I'm sure we will have a better idea of the money that may have been allocated to any work that needs to be done. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to welcome some visitors in the gallery from Inuvik. We have Mr. Jozeph Carnigarsky, who is the president of the DGO; Mr. Jimmy Kalinek, well-known drum dancer and snowmobile racer. Always nice to have another McLeod in the Assembly. I would like to recognize Jordan McLeod. I would also like to recognize all the students who are here. I think one in particular is Jasmine Gordon. She is from Inuvik. Welcome to the Assembly. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the federal government announced some monetary funding over two years for the Canadian Culture, CCSF, as part of its 2016 budget. Further, the amount of money was allocated over 10 years in the 2017 budget.

Once we get the planning study and that done and the class C estimate, we will be in a better position to know exactly what we are looking for from the federal government. There are opportunities for us to put applications in to try leverage more federal funding to help with this project. We will certainly pursue that. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. That is correct.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the figure that you see there is actually the figure that's the only money that was appropriated for these particular projects. Once the planning of that is done, they will be coming forward in 2019-2020 for larger appropriations start the actual building. Thank you.

Yes, my apologies. I should have put in after supplementary No. 3, so it's $14 million after supplementary No. 3. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, we are about halfway through the year, but we are pretty confident that we will be able to reconcile.
