Mr. Speaker, I have a written question for the Premier. Since 1987, the federal government has transferred to the GNWT the responsibility for intra and interterritorial highways and access roads reconstruction, health services, northern scientific resource laboratories and forest management and fire suppression.
The federal government also made one time payments for the implementation of the Young Offenders Act, for NWT labs, for NWT nurses, forestry and RCMP housing.
There may be other areas of responsibility which the federal government has assisted the GNWT with financially, but which it no longer wishes to look after.
Would the Government Leader provide a list of all those programs which were not officially devolved to this government, but for which this government now assumes responsibility.
