Statements in Debates
That’s good to know and I’m happy to hear that. I’m curious, will there be any sort of public awareness campaign or anything done to encourage the individuals who might be in arrears to come forward with this information in order to identify areas where they may, in fact, not owe large sums of money so that they can get back on a financial pathway, to a positive financial pathway? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. During my Member’s statement I was talking about some of these perceived arrears that public housing tenants have in the Northwest Territories. As I said, there are some people that believe that a number of these arrears aren’t, in fact, real. I would like to ask the Minister responsible some questions about those potential arrears. Has any analysis been done within the Housing Corp to determine whether or not this is, in fact, true? Are there some individuals who have possibly unreal arrears or have we done any assessment to determine that, in fact? Thank you, Mr...
Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. I have nobody else on my list. Is committee agreed that we’ve concluded opening comments from the Minister and general remarks from Members?
Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. Mr. McLeod, could I please get you to introduce your witness for the record?
Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. The last on my list is Mr. Yakeleya.
Does committee agree that we allow the Ministers to bring in their witnesses?
Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Next on my list is Mr. Ramsay.
Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. We’ll now go to Mr. Michael McLeod for his opening comments.
Thank you, Minister McLeod. Next on my list is Mr. Hawkins.
Agreed. Before we proceed with Tabled Document 66-16(5) we’re going to take a short break. Thank you.
