Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just want to ask -- probably the Minister of Health, I guess, could answer this -- section 1 of the Medical Care Act, does that include everybody who receives medical services in the NWT, insured or non-insured, non-residential, whoever? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. If I understand the question, residents of the Northwest Territories that receive services and are registered under our health care plan would fall into this category. So the type of program that we draw down or the bill system we have -- and I think that's where the confusion may lie -- is it's the type of billing we have that would fall in this category. But all residents of the Northwest Territories that have applied for health care and even those people receiving non-insured health services, as I stated earlier, it's another program directed specifically to the aboriginal population in the Northwest Territories. Thank you.

Clarification, I guess. So everybody basically falls under section 1 of the Medical Care Act, right?

Mr. Chairman, section 1 of the Medical Care Act does define insured persons, and it suggests that they're people who are eligible for and entitled to insured services under this act or the regulations. As the Minister has pointed out, I believe everybody in the Territories is eligible for insured services. Some are eligible for non-insured services as well, over and above. So I think everybody is caught under this provision of the Medical Care Act. Thank you.
