Written Question 22-15(5): Affordable Housing Plans

Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister responsible for the NWT Housing Corporation.

Can the Minister provide this House with the “new” affordable housing plans?

What innovative changes are incorporated into the affordable housing plans that more adequately meet the needs of northerners?

Has there been any post-analysis done to assess whether or not adjustments to floor plans will better meet specific needs of potential clients. If so, can the Minister provide this information?

Thank you.
