Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. We’ll go to Premier McLeod.

Do you have any witnesses you’d like to bring into the Chamber?

Now we’re getting into some of the details, which is good. We’ve been waiting for this for a while.

My interpretation of the plan is my interpretation. I’m assuming anyone on this side of the House who read the plan, as well, would have their own views. We know the department has their own views and I think the public might have their own views. So would the Minister like to enlighten us and maybe table this plan for everyone to see, because, quite frankly, Nats’ejee K’eh is closed, so what harm would that do?

Thank you. Does committee agree we have concluded consideration of the Department of Finance?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’m going to continue my questions from yesterday with the Minister of Health and Social Services on addictions and, more importantly, the closing of the Nats’ejee K’eh Residential Treatment Centre.

It’s clear that this Assembly and the people at large have a Mental Health and Addictions Action Plan for 2012-2015, which we were told were the guiding principles, or I guess the compass points, if you will. We waited meticulously for many months for the Minister’s Forum on Addictions. That’s on one side of the equation.

All the while, what’s happened on the other side of the...

Committee, if I can get you to turn page 3-6. Finance, activity summary, office of the chief information officer, infrastructure investment summary, information technology projects, $450,000. Does committee agree?

Mr. Speaker, your committee has been considering Tabled Document 107-17(4), NWT Capital Estimates 2014-2015, and would like to report progress. I move that the report of Committee of the Whole be concurred with. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Does committee agree?

Does committee agree that we have concluded consideration of the Department of Human Resources?

Thank you, committee. Sergeant-at-Arms, if you could escort the witnesses in, thank you.

While we’re waiting for that, committee, the order of the proceedings have been predetermined today. We’re going to commence with Finance. So if you can go to section 3. We’ll be starting on section 3-2 in the 2014-2015 Capital Estimates, so if you can turn to those pages.

Premier, if you can introduce your witness to the House, please.
