Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just wondered what work is being done in terms of the Pollard report, if the Minister knows if that is going to be returned to us and are we done with that or do we have an opportunity to contribute to his review of the environmental process still. Thanks.

My sympathies, Mr. Krutko. Anything further? Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Page 12-27, Industry, Tourism and Investment, activity summary, information item, tourism and parks, active positions.

Thank you, Minister McLeod. Does committee agree that this concludes general comments?

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Minister McLeod.

Thank you, committee. Page 12-11, Industry, Tourism and Investment, information item, active positions, Business Development Investment Corporation. Agreed?

I appreciate that information from the deputy minister. The $1.25 million probably wouldn’t cover all that. I think there’s another four-point-something million to cover most of those items including at least some of the Bear River stuff and the Whati project and in-stream hydro and Lutselk'e. I guess I’m trying to figure out how the dollars, $1.25. million, is being spent on the Hydro Strategy specifically versus on the work to develop hydro, so if there’s any clarification there, I’d appreciate it. Also, there was some mention of dollars going towards Deze, I think it was, for the Taltson...

And were those transfers done some years ago or was that just done this year? Can I get confirmation that these are first-time expenditures in recent times, say in this Assembly? Thank you.

Thank you. Page 11-19, Transportation, information item, airports, active positions. Agreed?

Thank you, committee. I would like to thank the Minister and his witnesses and ask the Sergeant-at-Arms to please escort the witnesses from the Chamber.

Thank you, committee. Our next task is to review the budget for the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment. Does committee agree?

Thank you, Minister. Next on my list I have Mr. Abernethy.
