Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, let me explain that in the job reclassification exercise it went through with respect to Hay and Associates, it was determined in accordance with the skills and responsibilities of a nurse, because that is what we are discussing right now; under the new pay scheme, they would get somewhere between $9,000 to $13,000 in pay increase. Over and above that, they would get whatever collective agreement arrangements are made, should we manage to get it out to our employees to sign off. I think there is a two percent increase in wages, there are some additional northern allowances that are out there; depending what community you are in, there is a $500 signing-on bonus for two years.
There are a variety of other physical arrangements outside of the reclassification of the job, of community nurses, et cetera. What I am saying to you is, it is one component of the program that both Mr. Ng and myself are collaborating on to ensure that we have in the short term, an adequate nursing fraternity to look after the health care of the people of the territories and long-term, that we develop, along with Mr. Dent, a training component that will bring about a homegrown nursing fraternity as we have done with teachers. Thank you.
