Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’d like to follow up on some questions from my colleague Ms. Bisaro on the Anti-Poverty Strategy. I was wondering if the Premier could tell me which departments are represented in the internal working group that’s working on the strategy. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you, Mr. Abernethy. The honourable Premier, Mr. Roland.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will have to get that information and I will provide it to the Member. Thank you.
I attended both Prospects North and the Anti-Poverty Summit the week before session, and what became really interesting and obvious to me is that for an Anti-Poverty Strategy to work and to be effective in the Northwest Territories, you’re going to need to engage business. Business is going to need to be involved. I don’t believe that Industry, Tourism and Investment is currently one of the members on our internal working group, and I’m just wondering, if they’re not one of the groups on our internal working group, could the Premier commit to getting a representative from ITI onto that working group to represent business so that we stand a chance of succeeding at our Anti-Poverty Strategy. Thank you.
I am prepared to have that discussion and see how we can add and strengthen this process. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Roland. The honourable Member for Mackenzie Delta, Mr. Krutko.
