Statements in Debates
That’s continued on page 7-27, Public Works and Services, information item, Technology Service Centre chargeback, active positions.
Thank you, Ms. Gault. Anything further, Mr. Bromley?
Thank you, committee. I’d like to ask the Minister if he would like to bring in some witnesses.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Next the chair is going to recognize Mr. Yakeleya.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Mr. Minister.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, your committee has been considering Tabled Document 62-16(4), NWT Main Estimates, 2010-2011, and would like to report progress. I move that the report of Committee of the Whole be concurred with.
Thank you, Mr. Yakeleya. I didn’t hear a question there, Mr. Yakeleya. Just a response from the Minister.
Pages 11-28 and 11-29, Community Access Program, operations expenditure summary, $1.008 million. Agreed?
Real quick. I think we can pick up on the discussion tomorrow, but I just wanted to mention, and I know the Minister is aware of this, we’ve got partnerships with communities where we have EDOs out there in the regions. In a year they might not move a file. I talked earlier in this session about the SEED program. I agree that we’re getting the money out the door, but is it getting into business people’s hands so they can make a real difference? I talked about only one-third of it really ending up in real businesses’ hands. I also talked about contributions from ITI and not any of that money...
Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Mr. Neudorf.
