Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I'd like to thank the Minister and welcome the witnesses to our proceedings this afternoon. I just have a couple of questions on the Minister's opening comments. I guess the first one, it's on page 2, Public Works and Services provides necessary technical and professional support to government departments. I'm just wondering, the budget deliberations that are going on here for a month are very important to the people we represent. As well, Mr. Chairman, they're important to the 4,400-or-so-odd employees that the Government of the Northwest Territories has. Without us having the APTN contract, we've gone out and tried to do some web broadcasting, you know, for video and audio of the proceedings of the Legislature. From my knowledge, government employees aren't able to access the proceedings of the House either in video or audio format.
I'd like to ask the Minister today, I mean, we are in the process of our budget session looking at approving over $1 billion worth of government spending, and I believe it's very important that the GNWT staff in all the various departments are able to listen or to even view the proceedings of this House, and that they have the ability to do that, Mr. Chairman. Again, probably the vast majority of our employees wouldn't access an audio broadcast of our proceedings, but some would. Especially in senior management, I think they'd certainly want to pay attention to what's happening here in the House in their office. I'd like to ask the Minister what his plans are to make that available to anybody that wants it. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
