Thank you, Madam Chair. One of the things I was looking at and committee, Madam Chair, should be reminded of just what the level of accountability and approval is as we review the Housing Corporation. This would, I hope, lead into my first question here, Madam Chair. Looking at some of the documents that we received, the budget address from last year and the budget address from this year and if you look back in the neighbourhood of the appendixes to the budget address, Madam Chair, or I'm sorry, Mr. Chairman, last year in the summary of operations there was indeed a line for the NWT Housing Corporation of $36.8 million approximately, but this year there is no line. I wanted to ask the Minister where is the accountability for the Housing Corporation's expenditures when indeed committee votes and when the Assembly votes on this appropriation? Has there been some change in the way we consider our voting and in the way the Housing Corporation is accountable for what it brings before us, Mr. Chair?
