Thank you, Ms. Meade. Mr. Abernethy.
Thank you, Minister. Mr. Yakeleya.
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Minister Lee.
This sounds like a particularly difficult profession for finding qualified people in Canada. Perhaps that is the case. I know we spent a couple of hundred thousand dollars on this retention and recruitment, recruitment and retention website last year. Have we had any bites in the area of audiology or any return on that investment in this area?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thanks for the comments from the Minister on that. I’ll look forward to the details that he can provide.
I’d like to ask one last question. As far as the Minister knows, does the following commitment from Health and Social Services still stand? How does this reflect on the longevity of the program as planned? The GNWT is committed to increasing the number of NPs in the NWT. The Health and Social Services planning document also says, “Through Foundation for Change, we will focus on delivering the right services using the most appropriate service provider.” All too often...
Thank you, Mr. Yakeleya. Ms. Lee.
Thank you Mr. Abernethy. Minister Lee.

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Ms. Lee.
Are there any other audiology positions that we have and are they filled or are they vacant as well? Thank you.
