Thank you. For the record, we’re on Committee Report 2-15(5). Mr. Hawkins.
Yes, thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the Minister still didn’t answer the fundamental question here. That fundamental question is, why were Members of this side of the House not informed of the change in this project? Mr. Speaker, if I could, last year we were told that a key factor to relocating that program to Hay River was the fact that there was a facility there. That has changed. It’s fundamental; it’s simple to see, Mr. Speaker. Why were Regular Members not advised, Mr. Speaker? That’s what I’d like to know. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. The motion is in order. To the motion.
