Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman I had an opportunity to just do a little bit of research. I had talked before the break a bit about the treatment of the casual and term positions and with respect to particularly the casual employees who worked at the justice and corrections facilities in Hay River. I was able to determine that when the Department of Justice went to Hay River to notify the employees verbally for the first time, at Dene K'onia, and they asked the casuals to leave the meeting. However, the casuals refused to leave the meeting and the indeterminates wanted them to stay, so they did.

My information, Mr. Chairman, is that never have the casual employees at Dene K'onia ever received anything in writing saying that their jobs were terminated or finished. I would like the Minister to confirm if that is correct. Thank you.
