Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. A question to the Minister of Personnel. On February 27, 1992 the Minister made an annoucement about cabinet's decision to sell government owned staff houses in Yellowknife, Hay River and Fort Smith. My question is, does this new policy or program apply to any other communities than the three mentioned in this statement?

I am aware that in the last few weeks in Inuvik offers or counter-offers have been made to employees of the government. Under what program or policy has the sale of houses been made or offers been made in Inuvik?

Mr. Speaker, I believe that this may be as a result of an initiative that was taken, I think, back in November of 1990, to offer to sell certain units to employees who had responded to a survey, and that this is moving toward finalizing the initiative that was taken up at that time. Thank you.

In that same statement of February 27, the Minister announced, and I quote, "The initiative is the first phase of a long-term staff housing strategy." My question is, what is your time table for this strategy? When can we in the House see the results or a strategy?

Question O335-12(2): Statement Pilot Project Extension Of Victim Impact

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This question is for the Minister of Justice. On July 3, 1991, the 11th Assembly's Minister of Justice announced a pilot project that would provide services enabling victims of crime to make a victim impact statement for consideration by the courts. The pilot project was to involve the RCMP in nine NWT communities, and Yellowknife was not one of the communities identified for participation in the pilot project. Mr. Speaker, will the Minister advise the House whether there are plans to extend the scope of this project to include other communities?

Mr. Speaker, the expansion of initiatives like that will depend on the finalization of the budget
in my department and the RCMP budget. So I would expect that it would be part of the O and M budget discussions that we will be having when the Assembly resumes to look at the O and M budget in June or July. Thank you.
