Thank you, Minister Beaulieu. Ms. DeLancey.

Thanks for that explanation. That’s what I thought, so that’s confirmed.

The next item down is community wellness programs. It mentions Bailey House in Yellowknife. I have heard, I believe, that we are developing a community wellness strategy and we are putting wellness committees, I think it is, in communities in the NWT. I’d like to know from the Minister, can I get a bit of an explanation in what we are doing in each community. Is it a wellness strategy in each community? Are we putting a wellness coordinator in there? What is that program that we’re doing regarding wellness? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Bouchard. Minister Miltenberger.

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. You’re referencing the Power Subsidy Program, I believe. Mr. Miltenberger.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. The motion is on the floor. Motion is in order. It’s being distributed now.

Motion is non-debatable.

Thank you, Mr. Dolynny. Minister Beaulieu.

Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Time is up. We’ll move on to Mr. Bromley.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have a couple of questions here and both of these items have been referred to in opening remarks but I want to follow up at this point. The program review office, I know from previous information that we have been advised that they are developing a work plan. I noted the other day when Mr. Ramsay was speaking that he indicated that the program review office was looking at the Business Development Investment Corporation. The last information I think that we had was that committee would be asked for input into the work of the program review office. Is BDIC on the list...
