Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I think it is difficult to be accountable if you are not doing anything, so there has to be some confidence that we can do new things and do them with the knowledge and support of Ordinary Members. We set out with an agenda that we took time to develop with every Member in this Legislature, and we made a commitment that we would not come up with new initiatives and try to involve Members of the Legislature in everything that we do as much as we can.

If we have the confidence that we can go ahead and do new things, initiate work and conduct ourselves without always wondering whether we are going to get hit in the Legislature with a motion on confidence or reprimands from the Ordinary Members.

That would go a great extent towards making us accountable, because we would be initiating work and moving ahead with some things.

Being accountable means we have to let the public know what it is we are doing. As well, setting targets for ourselves and applauding those things that we achieve. It means Members need to openly support us, even though they may not feel like it, because that is what the public expects.

We need to say when we are doing things right, when we have done things that are notable and achievable, because that is all part of the process of accountability. Silence can be deafening sometimes. We have our senior managers and deputies that work very hard all across government. I like to think that our employees are dedicated, hard working and committed to the tasks that are placed in front of them. We have to let them know that we are aware of it. We know what it is they are doing, and we are there to support them and applaud them when they do good work. Ministers and Cabinet are no less in need of that as well.

So that is all part of accountability, as far as I am concerned. In my view, we have, our four years to do some things, and the 14th Assembly can take the time in September to decide what is it that people are going to look back on, and ourselves included, in ten years, when perhaps we may be onto some other things.

To say we have left our mark, we have made a significant contribution, a historic mark that said the 14th Assembly was a reality that made a significant contribution and a significant mark in the history of the Northwest Territories. Thank you.
