Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my written question is to the Minister of Health and Social Services. In light of the recent opinions that drug and alcohol is the main issue for the potential pipeline development in the North, can the Minister provide the following answers for the Sahtu region:
What is the average cost to have a client participate in an alcohol and drug treatment program in Hay River?
How many clients in the past year, 2003-2004, have participated and completed the alcohol and drug treatment program in the North?
How many clients were referred to southern treatment programs in 2003-2004?
What are the costs for southern treatment programs?
What are the costs of a mobile treatment program in the NWT?
How many family treatment programs are there in the NWT that deal with alcohol and drug treatment programs specifically?
How many children between the ages of 14 and 24 received alcohol and drug treatment in the Sahtu?
Thank you.
