WRITTEN QUESTION 2-17(2): PUBLIC ADVISORIES ON CONSUMPTION OF FISH FROM NAHENDEH LAKES

Kevin A. Menicoche

Nahendeh

Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Health and Social Services.

Can the Minister provide a list of all of the lakes in Nahendeh that have had public advisories regarding the consumption of fish over the past five years?

Can the Minister provide details of how and when these lakes were tested?

Can the Minister advise whether the GNWT or federal government has any concrete plans to conduct future sampling or detailed studies of these Nahendeh lakes?

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. The honourable Member for Inuvik Boot Lake, Mr. Moses.
