Mr. Speaker, there was a review that took about two years to do, and it was very comprehensive. Out of that, there was a seniors' action plan done in consultation with and approved by the NWT Seniors' Association. We just recently published an update and, as part of Seniors' Week last week, we released the update. The seniors' profile is part of that. We've committed in there to try to look at the seniors' programs and we struck an interdepartmental working committee that includes a member from the Seniors' Society. There are, I believe, 28 recommendations. Half of them are complete. So we are working at that. A supplementary health benefits review, which the seniors are part of, is also tied into that but it's a very comprehensive and complex review that's going to take more time. Thank you.
