Yes.

This is one of the areas where it specifically mentions land claims. A concern that many stakeholders have with this bill is that entering into a treaty is going to come with land. They are looking for a clear signal from this piece of legislation that says they're going to move into self-government but self-government does not come with land.

Here we are talking about land agreements, so can the officials assure us once again that this bill does not affect land?
