Mr. Speaker, today is the one-year anniversary of the tornado that hit the community of Fort Smith. It was a devastating event for a family in Fort Smith, and I just want to ask the Minister responsible for the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation when the file is going to be concluded for this family in the community of Fort Smith. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you. Minister responsible for the Northwest Territories Housing Corporation.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and thank you, Member, for your comments. This is an ongoing file that we have been dealing with. It's very unique. I want to provide information to the Member. I would like to meet with the Member. We do not have disaster funding within our department, but I am willing to look at flexibilities for the service for the client. I would look at this as ongoing, but I would like to resolve this, hopefully, by September. I would like to put that date out there.
I have been going back and forth with the department, and I think that it has happened since I got elected in October, and I think that bureaucracy is slow. We have a member that had a very awful disaster in Fort Smith with the tornado. It is a big concern for myself and for the family involved in that community. A conclusion to this file is really important.
Thank you. I didn't really hear a question, but I'll let the Minister respond. Minister responsible for Northwest Territories Housing Corporation.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I just wanted to express that the Housing Corporation did come out, and we did provide assistance to the individual. I'm looking at what further that we can offer for the disaster and for the unit that was damaged. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
