Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I give notice that on Monday, October 5, 2015, I will move the following motion: now therefore I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Deh Cho, that the government work with the Northwest Territories Disabilities Council and community councils to assess the reasons for the failure to implement the action plan formulated in 2008;

And further, that the government work with the Disabilities Council to propose the best way to actively move forward with a Disabilities Action Plan;

And furthermore, that the government produce a response for consideration by the House by June of 2016.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
