Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Ms. Lee, further questions?

Debates of , (day 27)

Thank you, Madam Chair. Is the Minister aware of what that portion of the leasehold improvements the landlord will be paying is? Thank you.

Debates of , (day 27)

Ms. Lee, that is a bit of an aside from what we are talking about, but I will allow the question. Mr. Minister.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I find it difficult to imagine that the Minister is unaware of what’s happening in his department in terms of wrongful dismissal suits. I would also like to know what measures are currently underway to get the amount of overtime being paid out at North Slave Correctional Centre under control. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

I guess it’s splitting hairs, but, again, we’re going into this and once you start the renovations at the airport -- and they’ve already been started, Madam Chair -- you enter into the full expenditure and you also have to take into account the cost recovery of that expenditure.
