Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Both our compensation and labour relations sections of the Financial Management Board Secretariat and the corporate human resources section of the Executive are working together on a number of initiatives to improve our GNWT human resource management activities. I could go on for some time describing what is happening, but we have been focusing on a number of areas.
One is creating a framework and some strategies for human resource plans; improving the skills of our people in human resource management, that is the skills of people both in the regions and at the headquarters level; looking for organizational efficiencies on how we do things; clarifying roles and responsibilities between departments and individuals within departments; and, looking at pension reform. That is essential because of the opting out by the federal government, and also in making a shift from just simply being an affirmative action program to what will be called an employment equity program.
Those will be some of the main activities that are underway right now, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
