Thank you, Mr. Premier. Thank you, witnesses. Please allow the witnesses to leave the Chamber.

Alright, committee, we have agreed to begin reviewing the NWT Housing Corporation. I will turn to the Minister of Housing for any opening comments.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise today to work with my colleagues on a micro theme on seniors. We know in the Northwest Territories that the population of the Northwest Territories is getting older and older and we are seeing a lot of forced expenses with that. We need to support our seniors whether they stay at home or whether they stay in facilities.

In this House over the last few years, you’ve heard us talking about the extended care beds in the H.H. Williams and the new health centre that’s going into Hay River and the fact that they’re not there. We’ve been able to get them in the budget...

Thank you, Mr. Premier. Next on my list I have Mr. Bromley.

Return to page 4-7. Department summary, operations expenditure summary, $9.195 million.

Thank you, Mr. Goldney. Mr. Nadli.

Agreed. Page 4-29, information item, work performed on behalf of others. Any questions.

Thank you, Mr. Nadli. Mr. Premier.

I move that this committee now concludes consideration of the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation financial summary information and all related information items in Tabled Document 22-17(5), Northwest Territories Main Estimates, 2014-15. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Blake. Premier McLeod.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Premier.
