I believe so. It should be on this page. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, I do, Mr. Chair. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will follow up on that one, and if it was not sent, then I will make sure that we do send something to standing committee to give them a briefing.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, and, with the funding that the GNWT provides to Aurora College, we want to make sure that Aurora College is accountable for public dollars that are being spent. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. What some of this money does entail is it includes the northern counselling services, the northern travelling team that will go out into the communities. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. We wanted to expand the opportunities for more seniors to be able to access the Senior Home Heating Subsidy. In the past, it wasn't fully utilized. Some seniors don't fully utilize their fuel subsidy, and that's why we're changing it to a monetary, so they get the full access to what they're entitled to. So some of our elders fully utilize it, some go over, some don't even use it. So, thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Department of ECE focuses on the training and development of our apprentices across the Northwest Territories, as well as certification. When it comes to contracts, I think that might be a more suitable question for the Minister of Infrastructure.

Earlier I mentioned the "Right from the Start" early childhood development action plan that we have. That was based on best practices. We worked with our stakeholders, and we worked with the Department of Health and Social Services to develop that. When it comes to early childhood development and the importance of it, we are always looking at best practices throughout the country and other jurisdictions, but that action plan itself was based on best practices at the time.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Some of them are changing from a fuel allocation to a monetary system that will ensure that seniors receive their full benefit. We are also looking at expanding to seniors who are in rental units and looking at, obviously, the income thresholds, for one, and looking at modifications to how communities are allocated to specific zones, but as I mentioned, we are still in that review process and hoping to get those enhancements passed through in the new fiscal year. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. As this foundational review is coming to completion and we will get getting that report, the accountability framework will be guided by some of the feedback that we have also received through this foundational review. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
