As contemplated in the 2021 settlement agreement, a first nations advisory committee was created. If you go through that agreement, it does have diverse first nations from all over present-day Canada represented on the committee, which was instrumental, as defined by its role in the settlement agreement, in informing the development of the proposed bill that is with you today. Similar to the dialogue table, which my colleague mentioned earlier, there was ongoing work with that committee to ensure that it lived up to the settlement agreement.
