Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Cochrane, supply the question?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I think I may have asked this question here last year on reviewing efficiencies by social housing ownership divesting the social housing unit; and maybe picking a house downtown Tulita, for example, okay, so-and-so has a three-bedroom housing unit. Sharing the information of operating this unit, utility copies for the last three, four, five years, whatever, and seeing if there is interest of the current occupant if they want to buy that social unit. Is there any progress that has been made in that area, Mr. Chair?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'm not too sure if this was addressed here last year, but I have a feeling it was. Has the Housing Corporation ever looked at designing a self-insurance program? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Mr. Martin.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As mentioned by my colleague next to me in his Member's statement, being innovative took the community of Deline to create their own shelter for the homeless. My question is: when will the Minister build a homeless shelter in the Sahtu? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I am just looking at page 358, at infrastructure services, and wondering if this would be the appropriate time to ask a question related to the RCMP units. Can the Minister provide some comments on the progress of this initiative and basically where it is at? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Cochrane.

My second question is: what communities is the Minister putting new shelters in this year?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. As my colleague mentioned earlier, give credit where credit is due. I know housing is a challenging department here, but with respect to one of the LHOs in my riding, I receive no more phone calls. So something must be done right by the department. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Cochrane.
