Mr. Chair, only to say that we are aware of this issue and concern. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, I would, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Chair, I would suggest that Ms. Schofield could provide some information. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Chair, one of the positions that has also been vacant is the Fort McPherson court worker position, which has not been filled for some time. Those are the three positions. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Chair, we're not contemplating that that will have any effect on access to justice; I understand this is a registry position. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, significant discovery declarations do fall within responsibility of OROGO, but significant discovery licence are obtained from ITI, so I'm not sure whether the Minister of ITI would like to respond to that portion of the question. I can advise that there has not been much significant activity of any kind in the Member's constituency or throughout the Northwest Territories in the last couple of years since these matters were devolved to us.

Mr. Chair, no, we're not looking at other models at this time. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I'm not sure I understand the question fully, Mr. Chair. I'm not certain which parties are asking the Sheriff's Office to do things they shouldn't do. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, Mr. Chair, we will inform the Member when the position is coming out. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Chair, we don't believe that the public trustee is facing the same avalanche of applications and I'm not aware of any particularly significant increase of activity. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
