Thank you, Mr. Chair. That is actually covered within the community housing services which is on page 361.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. We have the finances for 30 renovations. We will be meeting… All of the interested parties who submit their names forward will be pulled together into a group. We will be negotiating with those groups. We do, however, recognize that there is a greater population of men within the communities who are homeless. We would be advocating strongly within the group to provide support to that. I will let any interested parties that come forward… It would be their decision on how that is divided. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The marketing housing, the ones that we own, we have 43 vacant. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I’ll let Jeff Anderson answer that again. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will let Mr. Martin speak to that one.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. That is not our understanding. We have had several meetings with the Salvation Army, and they have talked about using either the main floor of the normal Salvation Army building or the bottom floor of the Bailey House. We will double check to make sure that they haven’t changed their mind. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Currently, there’s 43, but they’re just coming on stream, so that is why we have so many, and it’s 13 per cent vacancy rate. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I didn’t catch that. Yes, correct. We haven’t finished the project yet, so we want to actually leave the money where it is because sometimes projects do come in over expenditure. If the projects come in under costing, all of the savings will be re-profiled to stay within the homelessness initiatives that we have. Thank you, Mr. Chair

Thank you, Mr. Chair. That is correct. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. On my right is Jeff Anderson. He is the president and the CEO of the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation. On my left is Jim Martin. He is the vice president of finance and infrastructure services. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
