Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I'm still trying to figure out what this program does and how the loss of it has an impact on the people at the NWT. Maybe that's the question I need to ask. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, my question concerns page 275. What the active positions present is that there's a decrease of three positions in the Beaufort-Delta. Could the Minister provide some detail on that? Thank you.

Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. And thank you to the Minister for that. That is my last question. What do you think the impact is or have you had any research done on the impact of the pension reform on employees and businesses in the NWT? Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you to the Finance Minister for that information. Does the GNWT have a voice at the table where the Minister is able to speak about this pension plan reform?

Okay, thank you for that. Earlier today, Mr. Chair, I spoke about the backlog of work in the public guardian's office, and the public trustee's office is in some ways a mirror image of the public guardian, and I'm wondering if the Public Trustee's Office is facing the avalanche of applications for service that the public guardian is? Specifically, they have 72 applications pending at this time. Thank you.
