Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Minister of Personnel is well aware that one of the biggest criticisms about this new staff housing strategy is that the people affected are saying that the government has gone ahead with this policy of rental rate increases without consultation. Democracy is not supposed to operate that way. We know, for example, the changes in the housing policy that took place a few years ago in Yellowknife, Hay River and Fort Smith resulted from a tripartite consultation process. Can the Minister tell this House why meetings were not held with government employees who would be affected by this policy in order to listen and make note of their concerns before going ahead with the policy?
