Question 140-15(3): Status Of Written Questions

Yellowknife Centre

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, seeing how the Premier, and in conjunction with the Minister of Justice, the honourable Minister Dent, have taken away all my legal aid questions, I had to find a new stump to climb up on and yell about. My question to the Premier, Mr. Speaker, is I have noticed on the status of returns to written questions many of the items, if not all of the items, are overdue for answers, and my question to the Premier is is he in a position to remind all Members of Cabinet that regular Members are waiting for answers on these, and to encourage them to reply? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

I will have to rule your question out of order because it is an item on the agenda, and we will be getting to that. So your question is out of order.
