Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I, again, appreciate those comments. I think we, indeed, need to take some serious looks at what’s happening. I mentioned the spiral into poverty that can happen in families and certainly when we have soaring costs in the midst of an economic recession and so on, these are the sorts of things that I’m talking about. There are more in the future. We need to plan for them. What is the Minister doing, though, Mr. Speaker, on the larger picture side to ensure that this government puts in place a mechanism to ensure that future Assemblies are not saddled with exactly this...

Very good, Mr. Yakeleya. Go ahead.

Question has been called.

Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Minister McLeod. Committee, we’re on page 5-63, information item, NWT Housing Corporation, infrastructure acquisition plan. Questions? Mr. Yakeleya.

Mr. Speaker, thank you very much for those general comments. Perhaps the Minister could interpret for us what sort of flexibility we’re giving up in terms of pursuing other things that this government might have wished to pursue. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Committee, once again, we’re on page 5-60, information item. Mr. Yakeleya.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Go ahead with your motion.

Thank you, Minister. Next on my list is Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I was saying, we came in saddled with this situation, we need to be sure that we are not going to saddle future Assemblies with the same sorts of yoke we had to bear here. I think that’s something we can do and I’ll look forward to making sure that happens and I ask for support on that. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
