Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I give notice that on Friday, November 8, 2013, I will move the following motion: Now therefore I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Yellowknife Centre, that this Legislative Assembly recommends that the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment (ECE) set and publish concrete targets for early childhood and student achievement within a prescribed time frame, and describe actions to be taken to achieve the targets;
And further, that ECE and the Department of Health and Social Services substantially increase and improve community-based, GNWT-supported early childhood development programs and resources to support them;
And further, that ECE now involve more communities, parents and teachers in implementing education renewal, and to promote greater understanding of this initiative;
And furthermore, that the Government of the Northwest Territories provide a comprehensive response to this motion within 120 days.
Mr. Speaker, at the appropriate time I’ll be seeking unanimous consent to deal with this motion today. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Mr. Dolynny.
