Statements in Debates
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. I have another question from another Member on this activity. Mr. Hawkins.
Thank you, committee. At this time I would like to thank Ms. Young, Mr. Williams, thank you for joining us and, of course, the Minister, R.C. McLeod. Thank you again. If I could get the Sergeant-at-Arms to please escort the witnesses out of the Chamber. Thank you.
Okay, we’re going to turn our attention now to the next on the list, the NWT Housing Corporation and the Minister responsible. I’ll ask him if he has any witnesses to bring in. Minister McLeod.
Okay, so what I’m hearing is that 8,400 square metres of vacancy space in Yellowknife. What is that in square feet, because I deal in different numeric here. What’s that in square feet?

I guess, what is the range of new pricing we may be looking at for this new sweeper? Thank you.
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Again, we are on pages 24 and 25. Forest management, infrastructure investments, $21.571 million. Committee agree?

Okay, committee, we are going to continue with capital estimates. Next on the list we have Municipal and Community Affairs. Again, I will turn it over to the Minister responsible to see if he has witnesses he wants to bring in. Minister McLeod.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Just for reference, Mr. Bromley, page 69, item 7, there is a unit there. But I’ll let the Minister follow up with that. Minister McLeod.
Thank you very much. So, it appears that we’ve got about $30 million that is part of this a little over $69 million that’s going to be attributed to that one project, which is part of that succession of multiple years in the making here. We know that this project was accelerated last year through both regular process as well as supplementary process. What part of those monies in the past years of both regular appropriation as well as supplementary appropriation is still sitting in stasis? That is that we’ve actually appropriated money in a bill. This money was given to this department to...
Sergeant-at-Arms, please escort our witnesses in, please.
Minister Ramsay, please introduce your witnesses to the House.
