Statements in Debates
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have to get the specific details for the Member, but I am pretty sure that it is definitely under 10 percent. As I mentioned when we talked about the lease-to-own program, we do want to reward good behaviour of people who are in public housing to own their own homes. We are looking at other options moving forward and maybe through you, Mr. Chair, I will ask the president and CEO just to add a little bit more detail. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Everyone is lumped in. There are other programs that seniors can apply for through other departments. I did table a senior planning study, as well, earlier this session, and I would encourage any seniors who are having any concerns to look at the options that they have in terms of supplementing their heating. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Martin is our finance guy. He'll probably explain this a little bit clearer than I can, and I'll just go through you, Mr. Chair, to Mr. Martin. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. We do receive the proposals from the LHOs on a yearly basis. With all of the programs and services that we do, if we asked them to do something quarterly, it would be taking away from the main impact that we want to make, and that is providing programs and services to our residents. It is done on a yearly basis. As our president and CEO has mentioned, there is going to be a meeting and a good discussion, and I am sure that all of our LHO chairs and members are listening to this, and it will be a discussion at that meeting, as well.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I am not sure if we could really restate the page, because it has already been printed, but if the Member is fine with it, we can follow up with a supplementary letter on the breakdown of the detail of this. If a letter is fine with the Member and the committee, we would be more than happy to show that breakdown. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you. It's 162 over the last three years, and we've exceeded the 50, and we're continuing to work, meeting those target rates. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. As Members know, we know through an audit practice every year, so through that audit, we also do the performance evaluation. It is an ongoing thing, and we support the work that the LHOs are doing in their communities, obviously, and working with our residents, so it is an ongoing thing. Thank you.
Thank you. It was approved, and we are going through the process of approving the budget here. Maybe through you, Mr. Chair, I will ask the president and CEO to give us a little bit more detail. Thank you.
Yes. Thank you. At this moment, we don't, just to let the Member know, but that would be an interesting discussion when we have the Northern Housing Summit. It is going to be an opportunity for all leadership community members sitting in one room talking about the considerations and challenges that they are seeing, but we definitely will be looking into something like that. We have a great partnership with the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation, and I think one thing that is coming out of this Northern Housing Summit is we are going to have one voice of hopefully the whole territory to send to...
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I know we have all been eagerly awaiting these agreements, and definitely yes.
