QUESTION 346-16(4): UPDATE ON THE STATUS OF THE ATCO PROPOSAL

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In my Member’s statement today I talked about concerns and possibilities with the ATCO proposal as well as the future of power in the Northwest Territories. I’d like to ask the Minister responsible for the NWT Power Corporation, could he give this House an update to the status of the ATCO proposal and what is the mandate of that proposal. Is it to sell it to ATCO or is it to work in partnership?

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. The honourable Deputy Premier, Mr. Miltenberger.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Premier is out of the House for a few minutes and I will take that question as notice.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. The honourable Member for Weledeh, Mr. Bromley.
