Yes, please, Madam Chair.
Madam Chair, I'm going to go on a limb here based on all of the information I've seen over the last few weeks is that we're not ready to necessarily make concrete plans in response to the current wildfire season and that the afteraction reviews that have been spoken about already in the House are, you know, underway but certainly far from complete. So that question will have to probably wait until that process is complete. Thank you.
Mr. Speaker, I wish to table the following four documents: What We Heard Affirmative Action Policy Review; Public Service Annual Report 2022/2023; 69th Annual Report 20222023 Northwest Territories Liquor Licensing Board; and, the 69th Annual Report 20222023 Northwest Territories Liquor and Cannabis Commission.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the extent of the work the Member's quite right, the extent of the work to see the implementation to the Mineral Resources Act is extraordinary. It is huge. And I'm happy to say I will be putting forward to the House a full summary status report detailing all the different pieces, all of what's been worked on with the technical working group, with the Intergovernmental Council and in order to show a pathway that we're on and where we would what we've achieved over the last four years.

We still have $2.5 million is what we're asking for the current plan that's before the House right now. This was a major renovation.
