Thank you, Mr. Speaker. On the corrections page in the second paragraph, it indicates that the institutional mandate is to administer the disposition of the courts in accordance with statutory requirements by providing for the safe custody and detention of adult and young offenders sentenced to a period of incarceration or those remanded into custody. Mr. Chairman, I would like to know how the Minister justifies the tabled document, which I tabled today in the House regarding the sexual assault of inmates in the Hay River youth centre, when his mandate is to provide safe custody of these young offenders who are sentenced? How are the supervisory roles taking place? Are they adequate or inadequate that sexual assaults of young offenders is happening in our facilities? Thank you.
