I'll defer that to deputy minister Neudorf.

Yes. The answer is yes.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. No, this is a grant contribution to the community to create benefits and economic opportunities related to the Deh Cho Bridge. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, I'd like to also just let the Member know that as things move along we'll keep him informed how things are progress on this. So thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. We have no immediate plans to widen that section there. We will continue to monitor it and have discussions with whoever need be with concerns moving forward. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Earlier in the life of this Assembly, we had to sit down with the contractor and review the progress made on the Tuk to Inuvik Highway, it remains on budget at $299 million. But we have had to change a partial scope of the work on a section of the highway to help assist with moving the project along. We have changed the height of the embankment in certain areas where engineering have said it is possible and just moved things around.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I believe the last couple of years the Community Access Program has been -- our application base by $1.5 million. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll let Deputy Minister Neudorf answer that.

Again, I will have to check with the department and see where that’s at, see if we’re able to share that document as it has a bunch of detailed information, I believe, in it that I’d have to check on.

I’ll have to check with the department and I know we’ve submitted one on the Mackenzie Valley Highway and see where that’s at. I believe it’s going back and forth with the federal government. I will endeavour to check on to it and get back to the Member on that.
