Statements in Debates
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Minister Ramsay.
Thank you, Minister Ramsay. Committee, we’re on 9-17, Justice, activity summary, community justice and policing, operations expenditure summary, $4.900 million. Does committee agree?
That was a great paid political announcement, but it didn’t answer my question. I believe the reason why we don’t see the same numbers statistically is that we don’t reflect that in our accounting, we don’t count these superbugs. In fact, we do not report any other superbug other than Methicillin-resistant Staph aureus and there are a lot more bugs out there that make these alarming statistics.
Can the Minister indicate why his department consistently does not data collect, analyze, monitor and report these other deadly superbugs in our NWT health facilities? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Minister Ramsay.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Minister Ramsay.
I move that this committee recommends that the government in the 2014-2015 fiscal year allocate an additional $300,000 to complement existing funding for on-the-land programming, to establish a guiding framework, including definitive safety protocols and tools, for evaluating outcomes of the planned program. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Minister Ramsay. Is committee prepared to go into detail?
Thank you, Minister Ramsay. Committee, we’re on 9-10, Justice, information item, active position summary. Any questions?
Thank you, Mr. Ramsay. Continuing with questions on 9-17, I have Mr. Moses.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley, for doing that. Minister Abernethy.
