Thank you, Mr. Chairman. To my left I have Mr. Peter Vician, deputy minister, Industry, Tourism and Investment. To my right, Ms. Nancy Magrum, director, shared services, finance and administration.
Thank you, Minister Ramsay. I will now open the floor to general comments on the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment. Ms. Bisaro.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I move that we report progress.
We need to have some activity. Mr. Menicoche.
Thank you very much. I’m pleased to provide some general comments to ITI. I just wanted to talk a bit about our parks and, more specifically, the Sambaa Deh Park and some of the issues that they were having there. Well, there was a fire there this year and it interrupted the operations. As well, something new that the department had done with the contractors was about the user fees. This year particularly, the government kept the fees and that impacted the contractor. I just want to ask the Minister what the ongoing plan is for the park user fees as we go forward this fiscal year.
Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Minister Ramsay.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Are we departing from the way things have been going? Are we going through general comments and then I’m expected to answer all the questions at the end, or do you want me to answer questions one after the other?
At the end, I guess. What is the wish of committee? Committee has decided we’ll take all the general comments for the day and then the Minister can answer all of them at the end. So, Mr. Menicoche, if you could complete all your general comments and then we’ll move on to the next person.
Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. I have concluded all my general comments.
Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Ms. Bisaro.
Mr. Chair, I move that we report progress.
