Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Given the importance of this issue and the size of the problem in the Northwest Territories, I am somewhat disappointed that more resources have not specifically been allocated to deal with it. I appreciate the Minister suggesting that social workers will now have more time to deal with the problem but, Mr. Chairman, I have to wonder just how much extra time we're freeing up for the social

workers. We've already heard that with this extra time, they'll be able to provide victims' services better and now they're going to be involved in providing better intervention and support services for child abuse victims.

I suspect that we're expecting too much of a panacea in the handing-off of social assistance to Education, Culture and Employment. Just a word of warning to the Minister, I think Members of this House will be watching very carefully to see how improved services are in areas such as this because I think Members in this House recognize what a serious problem child sexual abuse is and, in fact, how we have not really been able to anywhere near adequately, come to grips with the problem in the Northwest Territories. That's just a comment, Mr. Chairman, I don't know if the Minister wants to respond before I move on to my next concern.
