Thank you, Mr. Chair. Skimmer aircrafts, is there sufficient fuel in Good Hope, Colville, and Deline to support skimmer aircrafts? Not the red retardant aircrafts. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. This is the first capital budget after the experiences of the evacuation of Fort Good Hope. And there's some situations that was experienced, particularly with fuel supply. So having learned from the shortage of fuel storage and capacity and having the airplanes go all the way back to Fort Simpson to refuel, burns up mold // fuel and de-mold // fuel. So given those types of experiences there, is there anything in this capital budget to reflect what we experienced during that wildfire season? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And thanks to the Minister here. My last question is ultimately our goal is to seek O and M support, NORTRAN. Would the Minister assist in coordinating the developments of this action plan to seek federal engagements for redirecting some of the royalties back into the O and M of NORTRAN. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Following up on my statement to the -- my questions are directed to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. Thinking and looking outside the box there, my first question to the Minister would be is the Minister willing to support and have discussions on forming a delegation to have a strategy session in Norman Wells? She may have ideas. We may even have ideas on the list of delegation. Would the Minister support that delegation selection?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, if I can request on returning to the number 6, recognition of visitors in the gallery. Mahsi.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. With the experiences that I accumulated over the number of years fighting fire there way back when I can't remember, it's been so long here; we had rubber boots in those days. And to see the climate change and the very likelihood of having forest fires in our territory every summer is very likely to happen. So in short, I'll be supporting this motion on the spirit of management, efficiencies, and responses to protect our homes. We only got to look at the community of Enterprise, Mr. Speaker, the losses there and the effects and the costly effects for that matter, Mr...

Nothing further. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks to the Minister for the information.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Thanks to the Minister for that reply. My other question is, is the Deline fuel tank farm at the airport sufficient for unexpected fires that we experienced with the consumption aircraft fuel during that season? I just want to know if that tank farm's adequate. Thank you.

Thank you to my colleague Member on the standing committee.

Committee continues to be concerned that residents of the Northwest Territories have adequate access to justice for evictions and housing-related matters. Notably, the Legal Aid Regulations expressly excludes matters arising under the Residential Tenancies Act as services for which legal aid is provided.

In committee's report on housing as a human right, committee outlines its learnings on promoting the right to housing through enhanced legal assistance for tenants. Access to justice for evictions can often be contradicted as "non...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And thanks to the Minister for that reply. Yes, my questions are a follow-up to NORTRAN. I see a lot of value in divesting into NORTRAN.

Would the Minister look at funding commitments to offset the travel costs of this delegation that could be minimized by utilizing the winter road season. Mahsi.
