Thank you. So as the Member has said, this is very much infrastructure, and that's part of it. As the lead, we work with the departments. But for detail, I'll turn to the deputy minister to explain how we are working collaboratively together on this very topic. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, we're working as best we can with the Member. We're trying to get that information. He may not want it he may want it details down to the ground. We don't have that information right now to share. We're willing to share that information.

In regards to his question, ENR is working on our bilateral water management agreement and its bilateral management committee to get regular updates, reports, and information, etcetera, from the Alberta government.

Yes, thank you very much, Mr. Chair, and I thank the Member for that. I can guarantee you we're going to do public consultation. We also have the process with IGCs that we are working with that through that process.
