Clerk Of The House Mr. David Hamilton

I also have a Return to Written Question 16-12(6) asked by Mr. Patterson to the Minister of Personnel on the number of Government of the Northwest Territories employees eligible for hardship allowance.

Employees who occupy GNWT staff accommodation may apply for shelter assistance when their basic housing costs exceed 30 per cent of gross household income.

As of October 25, 1994, 24 employees were receiving shelter assistance. They are located in the following regions: Inuvik, 1; Kitikmeot, 5; Keewatin, 7; Baffin, 11; total, 24.

This represents two per cent of the 1,165 employees/tenants in GNWT staff housing.

See context to find out what was said next.
