Thanks, Mr. Chair. I appreciate that response. And maybe the last line I have here is about there's supposed to be some sort of a new program that's outlined on page 52, the second from the bottom row, some new income assistance program that's tailored to seniors and persons living with disabilities and it's supposed to be launched in 2023.

I've heard about this now several times. So is there any progress that's being made here, and what sort of program are we talking about? Is this going to be through the tax system? Is it going to be a some sort of means tested or income tested, you...

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I'll try that one more time. So the two agreements concluded as the milestone, is that beyond the two draft transboundary agreements? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I just wanted to double check that on page 52 it says that the NWT Seniors Strategy is going to be developed by June 2022. That doesn't really leave a lot of time between now and then. I just wanted to check on whether we're still on schedule for that. Thanks, Mr. Chair.

And look, my I know that the Member the Minister was very passionate about this when she was on this side of the House. I just want to make sure that we allow for enough time to do a good job, not a quick job, and I'm sure the Minister will agree with me on that. So I'd like to hear about that....

Merci, Monsieur le President. Committee would like to consider Tabled Document 56719(2) and Minister's Statement 20219(2). Mahsi.

Thanks, Mr. Chair. Sorry, this is very cumbersome. When is that going to happen? When is this new version of the executive council handbook with the new tool for climate change going to be made public? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Merci, Monsieur le President. I want to thank the Minister for that. Of course, there are other children that may not get covered by these negotiations, but I'll just park that one for now.

The auditor general in that report was not complimentary of how we have been carrying out child and family services. The report of this House or one of the standing committees that supported a child and youth advocate with regard to the auditor general's report, so. When does the Minister actually expect that we could ever establish an Office of Child and Youth Advocate for the Northwest Territories? Mahsi...

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I know I've raised this before. There's some sort of Cabinet guideline or I don't think it's fair to call it a policy document but can the Minister tell me or somebody tell me whether that's actually been published and made available to the public at this point? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Merci, Monsieur le President. My questions are for the Minister of Health and Social Services. I want to pick up where I left off two years ago with my questions on the status of creation of a child and youth advocate in the Northwest Territories.

Can the Minister update us on the jurisdictional scan that was underway in February 2020 and provide a copy to regular MLAs and the public? Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.

Thanks, Mr. Chair, and I'll be asking the Minister about this in May/June. So head's up. I expect to see something done publicly on this before May/June. And especially if it's reported in this mandate thing as progress report as something being done.

I want to move on though. Today the federal government announced a new climate change target of 40 percent reduction from 2005 emissions by 2030. That's an additional 10 percent from even what the panCanadian framework says.

So what is happening in terms of our own failed Climate Change Strategic Framework and Energy Strategy that is based on a...

Thanks, Mr. Chair, and thanks to the Minister for that. Could there not be a web page or some information about the council made available? Like, who sits on it, even maybe the terms of reference somewhere. Is there a work plan? Are there technical committees or advisory committees that have been set up? There's just total absence of any information whatsoever about this body that's supposed to be leading some kind of climate change initiatives. So can the Minister make a commitment to get that work done? Because nobody knows what's happening. Thanks, Mr. Chair.
