Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Given the talk in this House over the past few days, centring on our fiscal situation, I still note that many GNWT employees continue to be brought into Yellowknife for meetings. Mr. Speaker, several of my constituents have called me to voice their concern about this. Mr. Speaker, will the Minister of Finance direct departments to ensure that all travel be a priority and, where possible, when meetings are to be held, be it conference call or other means, to send the signal that this government is taking our deficit reduction plan seriously, not only on wage reductions, but on all aspects of the government?
