Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, ambulance services across the Northwest Territories are delivered in a number of different ways. I can say that there is a considerable amount of consistency on how they are delivered and how they are paid for, because there is no legislation that governs ambulance services. The Cities, Towns and Villages Act allows municipalities to pass bylaws concerning ambulance services but there is no specific legislation governing them. I can say that the department will be working with the Departments of Municipal and Community Affairs and Transportation to clarify the mandate and responsibility and to establish parameters for the development of ambulance services. Thank you.
