What particular legislative initiatives can we talk about here today?

What is the cost of that particular travel based on, or who actually pays for it if you’re outside of the specific community the assistant fire marshal is placed?

Mr. Speaker, I think the Minister’s light on detail when it comes to how risky the risk matrix actually is. It talks about potential problems.

Will the Minister fully commit to this House in a clear answer as to all the particular risks in a plain language document so Northerners from north to south, from east to west, all Northerners will have a full opportunity to realize what risks are involved in this project and how serious the GNWT is in ignoring some of the risks and what we may be taking on as taxpayers? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

The next particular question I have is about quarry fees, if we can get an explanation. I know what the quarry is and I know what a fee is. Can I get some explanation as to what type of fees are driving out of this?

Thank you. Our contribution, do we have any requirements attached to it? Thank you.

I thought certain limitations of dredging as to where it was or handled was transferred to the GNWT. Is there any familiarity to that?

I’m here as a member of the committee and not necessarily the chair. It just happens to be that way. That said, what are the main objectives of the strategic plan?

What region specifically is the deputy minister referring to?

Mr. Speaker, I can’t argue with the facts that the Minister just said. He’s right; no decisions have been made. But I can tell you, clearly, that there is a deal being brokered that sounds like a decision made by Cabinet.

Speaking to the risk matrix, would the Minister be willing and certainly be innovative by providing a plain language document of the risk matrix based on the Inuvik-Tuk Highway Project so Northerners can fully understand what their territorial government is taking on and what burden they may be burdened with? Thank you.

Yes, I am.
