Mr. Chairman, I believe there are four Ministers who are considered out of town that may be provided with that support available. I am not sure how the Member wants to be informed of that, by letter, or can we just tell him when we see him? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If he has the information and he sees me now, then can he tell me, I guess. He did make reference to four Ministers from out of town. Is that all the Ministers receiving housing allowances? Is it just the four? Thank you.

Mahsi, Mr. Chairman. My understanding of it, in looking at my little team here, I think there are four of us who are considered from outside of Yellowknife who are not residents of Yellowknife. That is why I say it is four. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. As I went through the tabled document, it was my understanding that it was Ministers who have had to re-establish their residence in the capital because they have taken on the role of Minister. Can the Premier provide the Members of this House with a list of those Ministers who are receiving a housing allowance? The Premier did state that there were four of us. Is that including himself? Thank you.

Thank you. We could have just gotten to the point four questions away. No, I am not receiving any of that. I never have. We will give the Member that number and if he wants the names of the Ministers.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In the briefings that were held, we were told there were five people within the Executive who were paid over and above the executive wage table that is in place for the different positions. I would like to ask the Premier how much are we over in regard to the cost of these positions?

There is no need to get that extreme. If he wants it right away, we will get it to him right away. We would like to be finished here very soon. Thank you.
