Mr. Speaker, obviously I’m concerned about the seniors facility that’s being built and the needs assessment that would be in the community of Hay River. We know the population is aging. We want to know what the demands are for five, 10, 15, 20 years from now. Obviously, the 10 beds in that facility are something that we’re pleased that they actually put that back in the budget because it should have been there all along, but we also want to know what the demands are for the community in the years to come.

I’ll ask the Sergeant-at-Arms to escort the witnesses into the Chamber.

Mr. Minister, would you please introduce your witnesses.
