Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the issue of alcohol and drug treatment programs comes up almost on a weekly basis in our communities where children are running around and families are disrupted by the abuse of alcohol and drugs now. The complexity of drugs now in the Northwest Territories makes it really hard. So in terms of the Minister catching up on some of the issues here in terms of Nats'ejee K'eh, in terms of other treatment programs, we need to have specialized treatment programs. I am looking for the option for the Minister to come to this side to our region and look at mobile treatment centres. It's a good option. The funding seems to be okay. We can have an option to look at it, almost to the point where we could look at piloting such a program in the region as the Minister of Justice has done with the correctional institute. Can I ask the Minister to come back to the table with that type of flexibility? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
