Committee, would Minister Miltenberger introduce the witnesses to the House, please.

Just give us a second and we will proceed. Committee has agreed to consider Committee Report 4-17(4), Report on the Review of the 2011-2012 Public Accounts. I will now go to the chair of the Standing Committee on Government Operations – this is the committee that conducted the review – for opening comments. Mr. Nadli.

Mr. Yakeleya.

Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. Do you have any witnesses you wish to bring into the House?

Mr. Speaker, your committee has been considering Bill 11, Financial Administration and Public Agency Statutes (Borrowing Provisions) Amendments Act; Bill 20, An Act to Amend the Tlicho Community Government Act; Committee Report 3-17(4), Report on the Review of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of the Northwest Territories; and Committee Report 4-17(4), Report on the Review of the 2011-2012 Public Accounts. I’d like to report progress with 13 motions being adopted, and that the Committee Report 3-17(4) and Committee Report 4-17(4) are concluded, and that Bills 11 and 20 are ready for...

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. We’ll just give a second to pass that motion around. To the motion. Ms. Bisaro.

Thank you, Mr. Moses. To the motion.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate the Minister’s response. Knowing that this Minister seeks the highest standards in forming industry partnerships, as we’ve heard, and the quality of the skilled workforce, would the Minister commit to investigating the current barriers of the Targeted Wage Subsidy Program delivery, work within our Canada-Northwest Territories Labour Market Development Agreement, and report back to this House a strategy and an action plan to improve such a barrier?
