Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I give notice that on Wednesday, February 7, 2007, I will move the following motion: Now therefore I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Hay River South, that this Legislative Assembly strongly recommends the Government of the Northwest Territories re-examine the pay, benefits and working conditions of its full-time health care professionals to ensure they are treated equitably as compared with temporary contract workers, and to ensure that full-time status is seen from the workers' point of view as the preferred alternative to temporary contract work; and further, that the Government of the Northwest Territories continue to focus efforts on developing an NWT-based pool of locum health care professionals.
Mr. Speaker, at the appropriate time, I will be seeking unanimous consent to deal with this motion today.
