Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we're just a few short months away from having another class of Aurora College nursing graduates. And so I'm wondering if the Minister of Health and Social Services can tell us how many students she is expecting to graduate from Aurora College nursing program this year? Or how many sorry, how many are currently enrolled and may graduate I should probably ask. Thank you.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. No, and I appreciate that. So the reason I'm bringing up youth aging out of care and how much of that breakdown, so if the $40 million was dedicated towards youth aging out of care, is when we went out and spoke with youth, there was a lot of confusion about what youth were entitled to, what they could apply for and ask for services when they are aging out of care, whether or not it was kind of an, you know, one and done as soon as they become of age. And so I'm wondering if there is a breakdown of how much of that actually goes to youth who are aging out of...

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, does the Minister have a breakdown of the percent or amount within this $44 million that serves youth aging out of care? That might be a little bit too specific for here today but if possible, I'm wondering if the Minister does have that breakdown. Thank you.

Yeah, thank you very much, Madam Chair. And this is not a comment only directed at the health minister but I think all Ministers, is I think we really need to have a better idea of what supports Jordan's Principle is applying to the GNWT because I think that it is far greater than any of us actually realizes. And my concern is if those supports disappear, we will be really struggling in our territory. So I think it's important that we have an idea of what that dollar figure is. Thank you, Madam Chair.

Thank you very much for that, Madam Chair. That was a very helpful differentiation.

I'm wondering if the Minister can let us know how many youth in care that this $44 million serves and how many youth it serves who are under voluntary service agreement, just for numbers purposes. Thank you.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I wanted to ask some questions about the medical travel benefits. This is something that I know has come up quite a bit over the course of the term, and my understanding is this is quite common. And the focus of the questions largely have been around the amount that is offered to residents when it comes to medical travel, especially with the sorry, in especially in relation to per diems for the cost for food and the cost for accommodations.

One of the issues that has come up and was highlighted was specific to the or the additional cost of...

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I'm seeing that there is a decrease a small decrease but still a decrease in funding to child and family services. And I'm wondering if the Minister can speak to why we're seeing a slight decrease here and what's fuelling that? Thank you.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. And thank you for that. Likely, you know, we'll have that opportunity. I'm wondering if the Minister can also identify what is the cost per bed that Stanton Legacy uses for longterm care clients and the cost per bed that they use for extended care facilities? Thank you.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I'm wondering if this is the area where Stanton Legacy would be found.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, when will Health have a better idea of what the move in day is because I know that, you know, summer is a season but it's a quickly approaching season, thankfully, even though we look outside and it's very chilly out it goes fast. Thank you.
