Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would like to ask about the affirmative action strategy. Is it being implemented in the department and if so, have there been any major increases in the number of people within the corporation, especially people in the senior and middle management of this department?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Yes, as of February 2002 we have 56 percent of our corporation staff with affirmative action status. Eighty-six percent of our employees at the LHOs are affirmative action status. If you are talking senior management, I will ask the president of the Housing Corporation to confirm our numbers in terms of senior staff. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The Housing Corporation has a fairly small senior management team. There are ten senior managers of the Housing Corporation. Fifty percent of them are priority one candidates. When you add the middle managers and senior managers together, 67 percent of the management have affirmative action status.

Just looking at the GNWT affirmative action report, it states the Housing Corporation, out of 97 employees, 31 people are affirmative action. That to me looks like 30 percent. Can you tell me where those other positions are?
