Thank you. Yeah, well the human resources increased to $1.06 million. So that's why I'm asking that, you know, and there's 80 administrative and support services even though that, you know, with the increase -- but there are still 80 administrative and support services positions located in headquarters. Can we have some of those jobs transferred to the region?

Thank you, Madam Chair. If I understand the question right, so in this section there are only two positions that are being increased in the administrative and support services for the department of health and one position is the assistant deputy minister for finance, policy and planning, and the other one is a senior communications officer. And both of those positions are located in the department here in Yellowknife.

Yes, thank you. Well, this is where I think we -- we're all saying that, you know, we need more jobs in small communities. Some of those jobs I think it can be delivered from small communities -- in small communities. So I'm just asking if some of those positions can be transferred or can be decentralized to small communities.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, these are Department of Health and Social Services staff. There is only the one location. It's in Yellowknife. And it provides the policy, legislation, financial, and service support for NTHSSA and for the Tlicho Community Service Agency and Hay River Health and Social Services Agency. So the service delivery is decentralized but the policy and planning is located in Yellowknife. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you. I see here, okay, the administrative has increased to $935,000. And human resources increased to $1.06 million. And all 80 administrative and support services positions are located in headquarters. Can any of these positions be decentralized to regional office, like, sonographer. You know, like, we've been asking -- there's a lot of challenges why some people do not want to go to Yellowknife to access services. There's the transportation. There's the childcare. There's the interpreters. So there's all kind of reason why some people choose not to go to Yellowknife to access services. So I'm just wondering if any of -- some of these positions can be transferred or can be decentralized to the regional office -- to regional -- to the larger regional or to the small communities? Thank you.
