That’s good to hear. The other question I have here has to do with the reporting of the public accounts, and I know that the department has been struggling somewhat to get public accounts out by the end or the date that is legislated and by the end of the calendar year. I gather, I think there have been a few changes to the reporting of the public accounts. Is it likely that the department’s going to be able to get the public accounts out a couple of months earlier than we have seen them for the last few years?

Just one last comment. I wasn’t asking for the work of the PRO to necessarily be public – as much as possible, yes – but I’m talking about the work plan, what this division is planning on doing and what things they’re going to be looking at. Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I want to follow up a bit on sort of the same vein as some of the questions that Mr. Bromley was asking. I heard the Minister say that there will be consultation and public engagement. I’d like to just ask the Minister what the difference is between those two terms. Thank you.

Just one last question. The Minister just said that we still put money into NORCIX to the NWT Self-Insurance Program. I thought we had stopped doing that.

Thank you, Mr. Moses. Minister Abernethy.

Thanks for that info. I’m glad to see that we are not doing just year by year. I think a multi-year or three year or whatever it is work plan is a good thing.

My next question has to do with whether or not the work plan of the program review office is a public document. I think there would be a lot of people, both within government and without, I think, who would be interested in knowing what we are reviewing, what things are coming up. We may even get input which tells us that we’re moving in the wrong direction. So is this going to be a public document, the program review office’s work plan...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just have one question here on page 9-40. The Not Us! drug awareness campaign had money in 2011-12. Well, last year and the upcoming year there’s no money. I’m assuming that that’s federal money, but if the Minister could confirm that. I know the campaign is still running, so how are we funding it?

I just want to follow up. In terms of risk management, do we feel comfortable that we have a really good handle on all of our buildings, all of our GNWT assets in terms of the insurance risk and risk of loss, I guess for lack of a better way of putting it?

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Mr. Abernethy.
