Madam Speaker, I give notice that on Thursday, June 7, 2012, I will move the following motion: Now therefore I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Weledeh, that this Legislative Assembly strongly recommends that the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation delay implementation of the proposed changes to the seniors public housing rent scales until the corporation conducts a thorough and transparent consultation process with seniors across the Northwest Territories;
And further, that the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation develop and bring forward to the Standing Committee on Social Programs a new proposal for seniors public housing rent scales that reflects the input and concerns of seniors but still recognizes the seniors’ responsibility to contribute when appropriate;
And furthermore, that the Government of the Northwest Territories provide a comprehensive response to this motion within 90 days.
Thank you, Mr. Yakeleya. Item 16, notices of motion for first reading of bills. Mr. Blake.
