Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will speak in the context of the NWT Housing Corporation Act where we may be able to introduce several options to the seniors. Again, in the context of public education, we want to make the seniors aware that they are entitled to heating fuel subsidies, taxation subsidy and a number of other subsidies that are in place. We want to take a comprehensive look at what we can do to assist those seniors who will be adversely impacted and then again, try to prorate what level of rent will be assessed. We want to give them an opportunity, if they want, to elect to go back into home ownership or perhaps remain in public housing units. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
