Thanks, Mr. Chairman. I just want to get a brief explanation on why under the details of other expenses, travel, the 2003-04 actuals were at $64,000, but the directorate is slated in the 2004-05 mains at $173,000 and the 2005-06 mains at $174,000, which is three times what the actuals were in 2003-04. Can I get an explanation on why they could do it one year for $64,000 and now it’s $174,000? Thank you.

Debates of , (day 36)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My statement today is with regard to the decision the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs made in providing permission to the Yellowknives Dene’s business arm, Deton'Cho Corporation, to access a portion of Commissioner’s land located within the municipal boundaries of the city of Yellowknife, an area commonly referred to as the sandpits.

First off, I would like to applaud the efforts of the Deton'Cho Corporation and the chiefs of the Yellowknives Dene in embarking on this initiative. However, there are some serious concerns that I have with how this happened...

Agreed. Does committee agree that the consideration of FMBS's estimates is concluded?

Debates of , (day 36)

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. With the current negotiations ongoing with the UNW, I am just wondering -- I know it might be hard for the Minister to say what is going to happen in those negotiations for obvious reasons, and there is going to be some settlement, let’s not kid ourselves -- where is the money going to come from, or how does the Minister propose that we pay for any type of new agreement with the union. Thank you.
