Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Minister Miltenberger.

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Minister Miltenberger.

Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. Mr. Polakoff.

Mr. Speaker, my written question today is to the Minister of Human Resources. The question is:

Over the previous four fiscal years how many deputy ministers and senior managers were employed and eligible for annual performance bonuses?

How many of them actually did or did not receive bonuses in each of these fiscal years?

Ms. Bisaro.

By “under review” does the Premier mean that he’s developing a process that will actually award or reward senior managers for outstanding performance as opposed to the typical or standard “everybody gets a bonus”?

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Mr. Polakoff.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In February I asked the Minister of Human Resources some specific questions on bonuses for deputy heads, senior managers and excluded employees of the GNWT.

At that time I was informed that approximately $1.65 million is paid out annually to these employees. Further, approximately $550,000 is paid out annually to senior managers of the head staff of the NWT Power Corporation. This is around $2 million per year.

Given current fiscal realities, it’s definitely time to reconsider how this government awards bonuses to senior managers. Currently virtually every senior public...

Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. Mr. Menicoche.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Minister Miltenberger.
