Thank you, Mr. Clerk. Thank you for the question. And I think this is a fundamental part of how we need to govern in the Northwest Territories. And the last speaker was absolutely right. I think we have a healthy revenue inflow, but we have a lot of priorities and needs. And we've always been a government that's been catching up with our deficits. And that's why we need to take a full review of existing capital projects and make sure they're still meeting the needs that they're originally set out to do. This includes the large mega projects, like Taltson, the Slave Geological Province that have millions of dollars invested into them, and we need to look at if that investment is something we want to continue or if we need to prioritize something more urgent like Mackenzie Valley Highway. We need to review unfilled vacancy -- vacant positions as well and see what the barriers are and if we still need those on the books or if we need to defer those resources elsewhere. Because right now, I think, again, the priority needs to be on wages and on retaining our skilled workforce in the public service so we can get moving on our other priorities.
I would like to see more centralization within the public service as well. I've talked about an executive council office that would bring in the financial management board and strengthen its treasury functions so it will allow it to properly -- to analyze proposals that are brought forward to Cabinet to make sure that they're -- there's a double check. A policy check that makes sure that they're meeting our policies and there's a financial check that makes sure they're spending our resources wisely, and they're not setting us up for a ticking time bomb later on. And if we standardize that approach and streamline how decisions are getting to Cabinet and make sure there's that double check, I think we'll have better results internally. And I also think we need to do more on cutting the red tape. Standardization is a really important way to cut costs, and if we have a Minister who's charged with that portfolio and is looking not just at cutting the red tape for businesses but cutting the red tape for the bureaucracy as well, I think we'll find savings there. Thank you.
