Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and thank to the Minister for that commitment there. I look forward to the results of that commitment on the review. Currently, as mentioned in my statement, we have 24 vacant funded vacancies.

My next question there, Mr. Speaker, will the Minister support medical escort assistant to that position as well? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I raised the a Sahtu issue of recruiting a regional medical travel coordinator during our past spring sitting. Mr. Speaker, the NWT health care system is in high demand. It seems, Mr. Speaker, today's society is impacted by many challenges beyond our control.

Mr. Speaker, the NWT is resilient in many ways to the challenge that it faced and is facing. One can only view the reactive approach to climate change impacts.

Mr. Speaker, I had the opportunity during the week of September the 23rd for an invited ministerial tour of the Sahtu region. During this tour...

I've got nothing further there, Mr. Chair. That answered my questions. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I see Deline's on the list of repairs there with six units. I'm glad to see that. We've, on our recent trips, heard a number of concerns on the older stock having mold and mildew created as a result of these units. And I'm also glad to see that your tangible capital assets are equal, and it's -- the financing of these expenditures include funding from the CMHC and other various sources. That tells me that you're exhausting other people's money, which is good. How much of that -- just a real general question, how much of that is coming from the federal government? Thank...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I mentioned in my statement, and earlier as well, there's 24 funded vacancies. Will the Minister work with the other departments to see if those positions within the respective department will be filled? If not, is there a possibility of transferring that PY funds in the creation of a Sahtu regional medical travel coordinator? Mahsi.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I was very impressed to hear the statement made by the Minister of Executive and Indigenous Affairs on the health care systems sustainability unit, the creation of that unit, which leads me to my first question to the Minister of Health and Social Services.

After a review of federal-funded positions hired in the Sahtu, is a medical travel coordinator position feasible? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

So Mr. Chair, maybe the Minister could explain what that statement is on page 72 about funding from CMHC? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And thanks to the Minister for those two replies. It gives a better knowledge on the schedule of the construction.

My last question is that will the Minister work with my office for the additional materials that were there and got deteriorated, call it old stock. I've been getting some inquiries that local people are interested in the old material. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My follow-up to my statement here are questions to the Minister of Health and Social Services. My first question there, Mr. Speaker, is the Tulita Health Centre, can the Minister provide an update on the progress of that unit? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today my statement is on the Tulita Health Centre that's currently under construction, a very unique design building located in the central part of the community. However, the project has encountered numerous delays, and today we're proud to say it's got a deadline for completion.

The 18th Assembly approved this capital project some five years ago. After COVID delays, recent barging delays due to low water levels, constant delays have faced this project from moving ahead. I was proud to escort the Minister of ECC and the Minister of Health and Social Services there...
