Thank you, Mr. Yakeleya. Mr. Roland, would you like to comment?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am still disappointed that there is no money identified for Tuktoyaktuk for gravel all this winter. As you well know, Mr. Speaker, Tuktoyaktuk is well known for the erosion problems that they are having. In terms of stockpiling, I think that is important that the department identify that Tuktoyaktuk should be of necessary needs to address right away. I would like to ask the Minister again, under the $250,000, how much of that…I know he said there is no money identified with Tuktoyaktuk, but can some of that money go towards Tuktoyaktuk? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you, Mr. Roland. Mr. Hawkins.

Thank you, Mr. Roland. Mr. Miltenberger.
Yes, just one last one here, Mr. Chairman, in regard to some of the comments made from some of the communities. They mentioned that maybe health care workers can go out to explain the bill. I think it’s important also that if they do go out, that I think that, especially for the elders, they should have interpreters so they can understand the bill itself. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
