Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the work that we have been undertaking within the Human Resource Service Centre has taken a fair bit of time to organize and restructure, and that has caused some problems, as does any occasion when you start to amalgamate different programs into one.
We are back to running a service centre the way we planned it. We are trying to catch up with a backlog. The area of P2, as the Member has raised, is a northern hire, or someone who has lived half their life in the Northwest Territories. It is something that we have had to look at. It is a concern that has been raised in the past, as well as the affirmative action policy itself. What we have undertaken to do in the area of human resources, is to look at what we would call "employment equity," which would take in affirmative action and a number of other initiatives we are doing to try and ensure that we are doing the best we can for those that are working for our government, as well as northern residents and aboriginal people within the North.
We are working on a paper to bring forward. We will share that with Members, once we have a bit more work done on it. Thank you.
