Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I move that this committee recommends that Housing Northwest Territories establish a women's housing fund by the 20232024 fiscal year that provides sustainable multiyear funding to Indigenous governments and nonprofit organizations to purchase, operate, and manage housing for women and their children who are at risk of violence or have experienced violence. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. I know that this is a very big topic that we have heard about throughout the life of this Assembly. I know that there were questions asked today by the Member for Yellowknife South on the floor of the House today and that in response to one of those questions we did hear that the Minister of Health and Social Services is working with Indigenous governments to find out what Indigenous governments would like to see. And so I really hope that within the response to this recommendation that we learn more about what is happening in those conversations, what...

Thank you very much. I'm just hearing somebody saying no more strategies. And so I want to be clear, this is not a plan to make a plan. This is just how are you going to deal with this and do it. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I move that this committee recommends that the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs lead an allofgovernment approach to ensuring all children and youth have access to sports with increased funding, subsidies, and vouchers for sports equipment and registration fees. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, this is something that we heard directly from youth. It's is also something that I've spoken about numerous times in this House.

On multiple occasions every year since being elected as the MLA of Kam Lake, I have received phone calls from families, particularly parents, who recount their experiences to me. And the consistent piece of information that I am told is that when their youth have gone to the hospital there has been no effort to create a safety plan. There has been no follow up. And there has been no feeling of support as they leave...

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I move that this committee recommends that Housing Northwest Territories amend the collection policy and forgive any arrears up to $30,000 for Indian Residential School survivors as an act of reconciliation before the end of the 19th Assembly. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I move that this committee recommends that Housing Northwest Territories establish a youth housing fund by the 20232024 fiscal year with sustainable multiyear funding available to Indigenous governments and nongovernmental organizations to purchase, operate, and manage safe housing for children and youth in care. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I move that this committee recommends that the Department of Health and Social Services provide financial and human resources support to youthled nongovernmental organizations to host a territorial youth conference on mental health and wellness before the end of the 19th Assembly. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I move that this committee recommends that the Government of the Northwest Territories meet its commitment to develop an all of government homelessness prevention strategy by April 2023. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, it's not very often we actually comment on the last motion of our reports, given that it's just a timing thing. But I wanted to speak to this because committee tabled in the fall sitting a suicide prevention motion, and that was our first of a series of actions in response to the coroner's report. This report is our second action in response to the coroner's report. And what we were doing is the tools that were at our fingertips that we felt could hopefully have immediate responses and have a positive impact on supporting Northerners and...
