Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I certainly hope that we do not hear about a child that has had to undergo a crisis because we could not get a worker to deal with the family. I really think this is something that we need to take a look at. I think that Minister Handley has talked about the need for us to invest, for instance, in training and jobs, and how important that is given what is happening in our economy. I have no doubt that the Minister has also heard about the developing social problems in those communities that are impacted by an increasing number of jobs, particularly in the resource sector.

I think that if nothing else, if we cannot use this money to get more social workers, then I hope we are going to hear that some of that $3 million he was talking about still to come for Maximizing Northern Employment is going to be used to make sure that we get more social workers in the field, because we really need to see that happening and we cannot wait. Three years is too long to respond to the recommendations of the Child Welfare League report.

Mr. Chairman, I think I have said my piece on that. I have one question now that I would like some detail on. In the explanation for this $1.2 million, we see that one of the reasons for the expenditure is for child advocacy. Are we moving towards instituting a child's advocate in the Northwest Territories?
