Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister responsible for division planning. Mr. Speaker, in the last few weeks there have been a number of questions and comments about the decentralized model as it pertains to division and the transfer of positions to various communities in Nunavut, particularly Arviat and Baker Lake. Yesterday, I believe we heard the Minister indicate there is a delay in the construction of some of the units, but for the most part, NCC indicates they are on schedule with their construction.
Mr. Speaker, my main concern is, given the fact that we are on schedule for the construction of these units to house office space and housing units, at what point would this House receive a detailed plan as to when these jobs would be transferred to the communities, that means Arviat, Baker Lake and the other communities in the eastern Arctic? We know the office space, for example, in Baker Lake, is not intended to be completed until the year 2000. When can we expect to receive a detailed plan of a schedule as to when these jobs will be transferred to the various communities? Thank you.
