Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I believe in the budget address, I tried to outline what the GNWT's position was as it relates to staff in Nunavut that exists there. We believe that these jobs should automatically be transferred to the new Nunavut government effective April 1, 1999. With respect to headquarter jobs that would be reassigned or reallocated to the Nunavut area, our position is subject to article 23 of the affirmative action policy that there should be a hiring priority for people in the headquarters currently in Yellowknife that would move to Nunavut. Thank you.
