Thank you. Page 6-14. Mr. Hawkins.

I will be looking forward to maybe asking that question when we get into the capital side in a few months, so I appreciate that. I remember some time ago we talked about, I believe in committee format, it was referred to as the On Course Marine Strategy.

Committee, before we commence with detail here, we are actually going to take a very short recess. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Minister McLeod.

I will take the Minister up on doing some more Google searching for what I consider a pretty large project.

Just on an aside, with respect to the Department of Transportation website, which I believe is a new website here that’s up and running this fiscal year, when I look at any of the highways or highway information, October 2011 was the last time on the Mackenzie Valley Highway that we’ve seen any type of report. I indicated May 2011 with Inuvik-Tuk. Highway traffic reports, 2011. I’m seeing very little with respect to highway information, information that I know, if I was a member of the...

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Ms. Young.
