(Translation) Thank you, Madam Chair. I wanted to make a few comments and would like to make a comment that I appreciate the work that has been done. They have the most Inuit employees and the services that they give and they do not expect certain criteria to be employed by the department. For example, the managers or foremen, even though they do not have a high education, they become managers or foremen and this is a good idea. I like the idea that they have on-the-job training and apprenticeships. I know this department has a good program where they have apprenticeship and on-the-job training because it could help employees. The community empowerment initiative, on this subject I wanted to make a comment about offices. There are contracts that are given according to the regulations. At this time there are three offices that fall under the hamlet offices where these employees work, including the Department of Health and Social Services. They have a certain office area in one area and then there is the Inullariit Society where some of the employees work, also in the hamlet offices. I do not mind the arrangements as they are presently, but they are going to need proper office spaces in the future and we have to really

consider that in the planning process. That is all I wanted to say. Thank you. (Translation ends)
