I’d like to call Committee of the Whole back to order. We are considering Tabled Document 62-16(4), NWT Main Estimates, 2010-2011, consideration of Health and Social Services. I would like to ask the Minister if she’d like to bring in witnesses.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Minister Lee.

Thank you, Minister Lee. Committee, we are on the same page, 8-29. Excellent comments. Next I have Ms. Bisaro.

Page 8-36, information item, work performed on behalf of others. Mr. Yakeleya.

Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Does committee agree that we will continue consideration of Tabled Document 62-16(4), NWT Main Estimates? Agreed?

Thank you. Page 8-32, information item, community health programs, active positions. Agreed?

Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Minister Lee.

Thank you, Mr. Ramsay. Minister Lee.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate those comments and commitments from the Minister. Are employees assessed as part of their performance evaluation on the quality of their client service with recommendations for training and improvement where necessary? On that, is there an opportunity for the public to contribute to evaluations, perhaps not on the individual but a mechanism for them to say how they are being treated so we are not kicking them when they are down or whatever? Thank you.
