Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In my Member's statement, I mentioned the fact that in southern Canada, there are federal government regional offices to administer the non-insured health benefits on behalf of First Nations. Some First Nations in the south have taken on the responsibility. Can the Minister commit to this House that she will look at encouraging the federal government to open a northern office that can be accessible to the people of the Northwest Territories, or work with First Nations that are ready and willing to take on the responsibility of delivering non-insured health benefits to the people they represent? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
