Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, if we're invited by Corrections Canada to participate formally we would be happy to do that. I believe that we have had one member of our staff from Justice who has been approached about serving on the committee. So whether it's formal or informal I know that we will have some way of knowing what the outcome of the investigation is. I can assure the Member that our policies and procedures and the safety of GNWT staff is something that is of paramount concern, and an incident like this would, of course, cause us to review our policies and procedures.

I should have informed the House that we had instituted some time ago a policy whereby no member, whether male or female, of our parole staff would make a home visit unescorted. So our staff are required to visit either in pairs or with the assistance of an RCMP officer when they make home visits. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
