Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We are aware that clients and some advocacy groups have asked that the Government of the Northwest Territories consider a program such as the one mentioned by the Member. They have asked that a policy and program be made available. At the moment, our provision, Mr. Chairman, is we provide disabled benefits of $175 a month beyond the other benefits that are provided. Thank you.
