Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question will be directed to the Premier and it follows on the non-portfolio travel. Mr. Speaker, we are aware that the existing home travel allows for 32 trips for Ministers and that allows them, especially out-of-town Ministers, to travel back to their constituency up to 32 times per year.
We also know that as Members of this Legislative Assembly that we are all entitled through our constituency budgets to travel to other locations whether they are in our constituency or other jurisdictions in the Northwest Territories or Canada, as long as we feel it would benefit our constituency and the work we do.
I have a hard time relating to what this non-portfolio travel will allow above and beyond that. What will this non-portfolio travel benefit for, beyond what is already there? Thank you.
