Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we are moving ahead with the child and family services committees. In Fort McPherson, my understanding is that there have been six members identified and that training is scheduled to take place in November to get this committee up and running and which I know will be the first one of its kind in the Northwest Territories and probably all of Canada. Mr. Speaker, we also spend a lot of time with all the services we provide trying to deal with child and family services issues with social workers, alcohol and drug counsellors, mental health workers, even the nurses and doctors we have available, as well as the RCMP. Mr. Speaker, it's a very difficult area. It's a very complex one, but it's one where we devote a lot of time and resources. Thank you.
