Thank you, Mr. Blake. Mr. Beaulieu.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. My opening comment to the proposed capital budget at hand is minimal. Coming from a remote area of the Northwest Territories, we're quite drawn to the only industry in town, or the only industry in the area, which is the government itself, and without capital planning allowances for increase of commerce and employment and training opportunities in our area it becomes even more limited.

Of those resources mentioned and the time frame mentioned, could the Minister elaborate a little bit more on what is being proposed as far as having a land workshop in the Sahtu, dates and times and places?

Just to add to my previous colleague's comments on access and capital from the national programs, is it the department's intention to review community-by-community on their capital improvement needs? Say, for example, taking an old boiler, a diesel-heated fire boiler, from one of the facilities and turning it into something a little bit more greener such as biomass, for example? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As mentioned in my Member's statement, my question is to the Minister of Lands. On the issue of a lands integrated risk-based strategy and land framework planning, advancing our progress in the Land Administration Regulatory Forum, what action plans have the department developed in preparation for engagement with all stakeholders? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Minister Cochrane. Mr. Vanthuyne.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I, too, would like to recognize nursing and social work student Shelly Pierrot. Mahsi.

Thank you, Minister Cochrane. Anything further, Mr. Blake?

Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Mr. Blake.
