Thank you, Mr. Moses. I didn’t hear a question there either. Minister, did you wish to comment?

To the Minister, I appreciate that he’s going to make this report available, but I believe it’s before standing committee already. My question is whether or not, or why it can’t be made available to the public. I’m sure that the recommendations in that report would like to be seen by some of the people who had input, would like to be seen by some of the people who are using SFA right now. I would again ask the Minister when he anticipates that this report can be tabled.

Thank you, Mr. Dolynny. I didn’t hear a question there. Minister, did you feel the need to respond?

I think the Minister said that the report is not public. That’s my understanding, I think. I’d like to know from the Minister if the report has been received by the Minister and there has been a response to the report. I would think that there are many people in the public who would like to know what the report says. So I’d like to ask the Minister whether it is the intention of the Minister to make the report and its recommendations available to the public. Could he table it in the House perhaps, and hopefully soon? Thank you.

Thank you, committee. We’ll move onto pages 8-6 and 8-7, Education, Culture and Employment, activity summary, education and culture, infrastructure investment summary, total infrastructure investment summary, $2.329 million. Any questions, committee? Mr. Dolynny.

The North needs a search and rescue base located in the North. This Discovery Air/Airbus Military joint bid is good for Yellowknifers, good for Northerners, and good for all Canadians. All NWT politicians and leaders should support the Discovery Air/Airbus Military proposal. Thank you.

Thank you, committee. Sergeant-at-Arms, would you please escort the witnesses into the Chamber? Thank you.

Mr. Lafferty, if you could introduce your witnesses for the record, please. Thank you.

Committee, we will come back to order. We are starting the Department of Education, Culture and Employment, page 8-2. We will leave the department summary until we have completed the rest of the sections of the department. We will move to page 8-4. Before we do that, Minister Lafferty, do you have witnesses you wish to bring into the Chamber?

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. We will resume after a break. Does committee agree?

I’m on the wrong page. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
