Thank you, Madam Chair. So, Madam Chair, at this point the net impact doesn't have us going into any new debt on this one actually, Madam Chair, sorry, let me I think I'm looking at the wrong page. Let me direct that to the deputy minister.

Madam Chair, again, I don't have that level of detail of what the conservation approach might be. My understanding is that this is meant to help with the developing what candidate areas there are going to be. So I would leave that to a question for people over at employment ECC to provide further detail on, and I can obviously convey that to my colleague. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. So it is a federal fund. I can't necessarily speak to the details of the federal fund. But for the purposes here, it is supporting the nursing call bells in the Deh Cho Region and as well as in Avens Seniors. So in Avens Senior Home, it's to provide for oxygen concentrators, shower shares, patient lifts, medication carts, fridges, infection prevention and control. So, you know and that's in relation to, again, a longterm care facility. And in the Deh Cho region, it's related to nursing call bells, again in relation to longterm care facilities. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. So to clarify, we'll provide the copy of the survey results confidentially to MLAs but I would also say we'll put something together that we could put together with the public information that is coming as a result of commitments. I know it does get raised in the House with respect to IT projects and what's happening with them. And there are you know, it takes a bit of time for a new team to come together, and I know there's been some projects, Mineral Resources Act being one, that wind up going back to a department function. So some understanding as to the benefits of...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the fiscal policy review was something that is an internal policy looking at a way of evaluating what we do as a government and how we manage our budgets, how we design our budgets. It was completed by the fiscal policy division as the primary lead within the Department of Finance but also with input from some of the other departments that look at this type of work and that do this type of work, such as the comptroller general's office, the management board secretariat. We certainly did look at counterparts across other governments to see what they might do...

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, on my left I have Bill MacKay, who is the deputy minister of Finance. And on my right Kristal Melanson, director of management board secretariat.

Madam Chair, Ms. Melanson has a brief description. I propose she provide it.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, so there is a joint initiative between the Department of Health and Social Services and the Department of Finance. And I will speak specifically to the health area though, really, Madam Chair, at this point the department of health mirrors more closely what happens in other departments in that there are still management roles for the department's staff that then work with a human resources officer or client services officer who can support the work that goes on to hire someone into an individual department or division.

The health recruitment unit, though, is...

Thank you, Madam Chair. That I guess I set myself up for that one. Madam Chair, so, I mean, we have the liquor and cannabis commission, which is the entity responsible for actually doing the sales of the liquor and now cannabis. So the revolving fund really does fund those operations and as soon as they have an excess, they don't make a profit; that money goes back to the consolidated revenue of the Government of the Northwest Territories. But by keeping it separate, they do they can run their own operation, and yes, separate unto themselves which I would say is not necessarily an area that...

Thank you, Madam Chair. The contributions or payments are made over the summer months, so either between July to before the end of August.
