Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, if it is respect to actual personnel within the Department of Health and Social Services, then, yes, we have an affirmative action policy that we abide by. I do not know if there is specific training in respect to that issue, but certainly, through the senior management, and through the ministers office, we are well aware of it and we abide by it to the utmost.

In respect to any managers that would be coming on to health boards throughout the territories, that would be incumbent upon them, and their boards of management, to adhere to the same policies that our government has, in respect to affirmative action, again, I do not know if there is specific training or education for these managers, but certainly, if it is an issue out there, I would certainly be more than willing to reiterate our government's position on affirmative action and hiring.

What we are trying to do, of course, as we all know here, is to try to promote all kinds of professionals throughout the system. To try and develop a northern work force, particularly in the professional fields the honourable member mentioned. We are trying to develop that base, because in the long run, we know that will benefit the whole of the territories, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
