Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I guess that’s one way of doing it. My question was for all communities. Again, when we’re dealing with this, I want to make sure that the department had a plan in place for looking at repayment for any member of our Housing Corporation before we’re going to be providing further funding. Again, if I may add, Mr. Speaker, with your indulgence, is this constitutionally sound the way we have it set up? Thank you.
I appreciate the Minister’s reply. My next question might need a little bit more clarification from what he’s just indicated here. Clearly, this CARE policy segregates both market and non-market residents with two separate rules and criteria.
Can the Minister inform the House, what is the rationale for having those two sets of rules? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Sometimes policies make sense and sometimes, well, they don’t. Point in question, let’s look at the widely popular NWT Housing Corporation Housing Choices suite of programs. This suite of programs is offered to all residents of the Northwest Territories, helping to maintain and manage a sustainable housing environment.

Thank you, committee. Page 10, Lands, capital investment expenditures, operations, not previously authorized, $165,000. Total department, not previously authorized, $165,000. Does committee agree?

Thank you, Madam Chair. I’d like to welcome the Speaker and the delegation here today. I’m encouraged by what I’m hearing from the opening comments by the Speaker that they’re proposing kind of a single window storefront. I also believe there are many synergies in grouping services together into one office.
Can I get a little bit more information as to if we anticipate to see this in the upcoming year? Is there a proposed move? Is there a timeline for this opportunity? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. Ms. Bisaro.
Thank you, Mr. Yakeleya. Minister Miltenberger.
Thank you, committee. Does committee agree that consideration of Supplementary Estimates (Infrastructure Expenditures), No. 1, 2015-2016 is concluded?
