Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. I’ll allow for all the individuals to make general comments and then we’ll go to the Minister for responses. Next I have Mr. Bromley.

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Thank you, witnesses.

Okay, the next bill we agreed to deal with is Bill 18, An Act to Amend the Public Utilities Act. At this time I would like to ask the Minister responsible for the act if you have any opening comments. Mr. Bob McLeod.

Committee concur?

Okay. Turn to page 1, clause 1.

---Clauses 1 through 13 inclusive approved

Sergeant-at-Arms, escort the witnesses in.

For the record, Mr. Minister, can you introduce your witnesses.

To the bill as a whole.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Again, I think, my question is: do we have the financial means and the capacity to take on this type of legislation that will be imposed on us by the federal government? Do we have the financial means to implement this type of legislation in the Northwest Territories? Thank you.

Minister of Transportation.

Thank you, Mr. Ramsay. At this time I’d like to ask the Minister if he’ll be bringing in any witnesses. Mr. McLeod.

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Thank you, witnesses. Welcome. Are there any general comments in regard to Bill 17, An Act to Amend the Territorial Parks Act? Detail?
