MOTION 3-16(2) TRANSFER OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR SOCIAL HOUSING

Mr. Speaker, I give notice that on Monday, February 18, 2008, I will move the following motion: I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Tu Nedhe, that the Legislative Assembly strongly recommends that the responsibility for the administration of social housing be once again placed under the control of the NWT Housing Corporation; and further, in keeping with the concept of centralizing subsidy programs, that responsibility for determining the methodology of calculating social housing subsidies be retained by the Department of Education, Culture and Employment; and furthermore, that this Legislative Assembly recommend that the government provide a response to this motion within 120 days.
