Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I have 20212022 actuals here, and I can provide that as a onepage summary to the Member. Perhaps that might be the easiest. Right now the breakdown that I have is by the administrative regions of the Government of the Northwest Territories and not necessarily relating to individual Members' ridings. So as I say, I can provide a twopage summary here to Members and then we'll try and see if we can provide that in more greater detail at the same time. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I certainly could provide a list. There's the DempsterDelta Visitor Centre, Western Arctic Regional Visitors Centre, village of Fort Simpson, Yellowknife, Norman Wells, and in the South Slave is 60th Parallel and I can certainly provide more detail perhaps by breakdown in writing. That might be easier. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I think the Premier's given oh no, hang on, Madam Chair, I may actually have it here handy. If I don't, I can certainly provide it. But the Premier is correct, it is going to be coming in the life of this Assembly. I think this session, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, the deputy minister was actually quite recently in Fort Smith and perhaps I'll just, rather than me speak for her, have her speak to just whatever conversations briefly she might have had. I don't know that there is a specific ask from the town to us just yet. But I'll turn it to her for just some different detail. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, there's one increase in this area. It is with respect to NWT Tourism.

Thank you, Madam Chair. So that was funding that came through I believe it was announced by MP McLeod roughly a year ago now and it was I can't speak to the nature of exactly I believe it was it was probably some sort of project funding but, again, it was federal dollars. It is not the only external funding that Status of Women receives. They certainly receive other program dollars through other federal departments, and I can't speak to that entirely. I believe, however, I can commit to providing Members with a copy of their annual report which would then give a fuller picture of the...

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I think that is correct. I was going to try and just pull my list up again. But my understanding, again, is that it's the town and Parks Canada that are filling that and the 60th Parallel Visitor Information Centre is currently the one that is receiving funding in the South Slave region. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the department and I do have a draft letter that we are working on. It will be ready I think by the end of today or tomorrow. I am mindful again that this is a federal adjudicative body that has made an adjudicative decision whether or not we may now agree with it. And so in my role, I do want to be conscious of what I comment upon and how I do so. When I made that determination, I'd certainly be, if it's appropriate, happy to table it or at the very least to share it with Members confidentially. But, again, this is a good opportunity to let members of the...

Thank you, Madam Chair. So, Madam Chair, this is just the Business Development Investment Corporation, and it's just so the 15 staff mentioned here are really just for the BDIC. And they do a lot of their work, while based in headquarters, they support staff, ITI staff who will deliver their frontline work out in communities through the EDO offices that are based in communities around the Northwest Territories. And at this point, there's no intention necessarily to change the fundamental functioning of the BDIC. There is a lot of work underway right now to change well, to change their...

Thank you, Madam Chair. I think it's been said before there have been regular meetings with the LNR departments, Lands, ENR, or now ECC and ITI, and I can certainly suggest that we put this on our shared agenda.
