What was the reallocation? Would we find that corresponding difference somewhere else? Thank you.

Thank you. So is the whole sum total paid out for the staff, or are there other activities associated with the management and administration?

I appreciate the reminder of where that money comes into the system and then add it to the $16 million, which brings us to the rough total of the whole program of being about $29 million. I’m, I guess, really talking about the question of for what we’re responsible. Are we within the normal budget threshold of what we’re responsible for as a government? I’m going to ask, can we separate the third-party responsibility for a second, because it seems as if that is an actual cost, and I do have a separate question for that one.

Just trying to understand, why would in-house respite be treated as a program delivery under grants and contributions? To me I think in-house respite services would be, if it’s a grant under grants and contributions, something we’d supply to some association or organization that does that. So why would we refer to it as in-house? Thank you.

Thank you again, Madam Chair. I’m wondering if the Minister can provide some details as to what activities are associated with the management and administration under the health authority administration, if he could provide a breakdown as to what that is. Thank you.

I appreciate that answer and, certainly, the forthrightness of it. Where does the additional money come out of? Can I get some help in the description of, sort of, connecting the dots? I mean, it must come from somewhere.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I’m just wondering if the Minister can provide a breakdown of the territorial health services contributions. It’s listed as $739,000. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to table a document, a picture I took which demonstrates that regular gas is sold at $1.389 per litre here in Yellowknife and continues to underscore my issue with gas prices. Thank you.

Debates of , 17th Assembly, 4th Session (day 13)

On this section, I think that will be perfectly fine. Thank you.

Thank you. Would this be similar for doctors that have to do yearly testing or upgrading or skill development per se? I know some dentists, I think every year, have to do some type of week or a day or two and there are other industries within health that require, obviously, a day or two seminar or whatnot to keep their credentials up to speed. Is this somewhat similar and do we pay for those as well? Thank you.
