Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am very happy to hear that. By the way, I am surprised. Being a member of the Standing Committee on Social Programs, I would have expected that committee would have been informed that we were moving that way. Can the Minister give us some details about the plans to move towards having a children's advocate in the Northwest Territories? For instance, what is the timetable? Is it seen as a full-time position? Where will the position be housed? Will it operate at arms length from government? Could the Minister give us some understanding of just how it is that we are headed towards this program but we are hearing about it the first time now?
