Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My question is in regards to hiring individuals who may have been let go from the government, who received a compensation package and then hired back. Is there any way of evaluating that or monitoring it with this process that you mentioned, where it is reviewed every year? Have you been able to monitor that?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Maybe I can get a clarification from the Member. Just on the question.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My question was, has the government been able to monitor individuals who may have been paid out by this government in regards to a compensation package, and then hired back under a contract, which is double-dipping. Are you able to monitor that in regards to the yearly review that is being done? And have any of those cases been found in the last year?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I understand the Member's concern now, but that would be a question better put to Financial Management Board chairman when he appears, because it would be under his mandate to monitor that, I would think.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The Premier had indicated that incremental costs are being monitored. How much of this area, Cabinet Secretariat, could be described as incremental cost?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Once again, that question would be better put to the chairman of the Financial Management Board, as well as the chairman of the Divisional Secretariat. My understanding that FMBS is putting all those costs together so we can present a bill to the federal government and that should be happening fairly quickly, I would hope, and then I would be better informed to say how much of this cost is for incremental costs of creating Nunavut. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Morin. Mr. Erasmus, you have been asked to redirect your question to the Finance Management Board as the chairman of the Division Secretariat is also the same person. Do you have a further question, Mr. Erasmus?

You are quite correct, I will ring the bell. I call the committee back to order and I recognize a quorum. We were on total operations and maintenance for the Executive Offices, $5,894,000. Agreed? Total expenditures, $5,894,000. Agreed?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My question earlier in regards to double-dipping, I asked the Premier, has anybody in the Department of Cabinet Secretariat, in the review, been found to be double-dipping in regards to having been paid out through a compensation package, and then hired back on? Has anyone been hired by this Cabinet Secretariat in that particular position?

Has anyone been found where the review took place in the department of the Cabinet Secretariat to see if anyone has been in a position of double-dibbing in regards to having been paid out through a compensation package by leaving the government then hired back on. My question was, there was supposedly a review done, when was this review done?
