Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Next on my list is Mr. Jacobson.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions today are for the Minister responsible for the Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission. They’re related to the workplace safety regulations that are currently being drafted and developed by the commission.

The original release of those drafts was earlier in the fall, last year, and at that time there were some concerns raised by industry, businesses, the construction industry, about the regulations. They’re very concerned with what was written in them. I know some work has been done to alleviate some of those concerns but I am wondering what the Minister...

Thank you, Mr. Beaulieu. Are there any more general comments? Mr. Yakeleya.

First on my list is Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Minister McLeod. As with previous departments, we had allowed all Members to make general comments and have the Minister respond at the end. Is committee agreed that we proceed with this same process?

Is committee agreed that we allow the Minister to bring witnesses into the House?

I’d like to call Committee of the Whole back to order. Prior to going on break we agreed to go forward on the main estimates with the NWT Housing Corporation. To the Minister for some opening comments.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Minister Robert McLeod.

Is committee agreed?

I will go to the Minister so that he can respond to the general comments that he has heard so far. Minister McLeod.
