I’m looking forward to action on that front. Obviously they are having impact, as the Minister’s own staff are telling us. What monitoring is being one to at least measure the continuing harvest of Bathurst caribou from the range that’s under the restriction of the ban?

I guess, just on the financial scoping side of it, that is something that obviously would be useful for us in our considerations early on. I am assuming again that that is happening, but perhaps I am just expressing an interest for that being brought forward. I think we wanted a role in both developing as well as responding to the final draft response of the government, so I am seeking opportunities to make sure that goes forward on that basis. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Minister Lee.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my questions are on caribou today. I am wondering, first of all, for the Minister, in consultation leading up to the ban, how did the Minister take into consideration the fact that the Yellowknives Dene had not settled their land claims negotiations? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I wanted to ask what role this department is taking in developing the government’s response to the Joint Review Panel recommendations. Obviously, a number of them call for planning and even facilities to enhance our delivery of health care and, of course, these will require commitments for resources, both people and dollars, and I think is the directorate that would be dealing with this. If not, maybe the Minister could highlight who would be dealing with it. It seems like it would be a big issue that we should be engaged in at the professional level...

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Ms. Lee.
