Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The areas the Member has covered...I thank him for his comments. We have started implementing working together with the Social Programs committee and Members of this Assembly to improve how we deliver the programs. The home care programs, yes, that is an area where we are enhancing, along with addictions and community health programs. The health authority issue is something that we deal with from time to time. What we find is, for example, in the Beaufort-Delta region, as well as the Deh Cho where we have community reps on the regional board that they get service from. So that's a process we use and will be continuing to use. From time to time, issues come up about accountability and how do messages get back. Representatives need to get back to their community and let them know what was discussed, what decisions were made. Ultimately, that's what health authorities put in place, not what government and headquarters make the decisions tell everybody and decree something would happen. It would be in the region made up by that health authority and sharing that responsibility as well as the accountability portion.

Homelessness is something we've enhanced and will continue to work towards. The issue of seniors in our facilities and ensuring that there is an adequate level of services is something that we will continue to work with. Unfortunately, there are times when we have elders as well as younger people who go in for major surgery and seem to do well through the surgery but have problems afterwards. That does happen from time to time. Other complications do come in, not necessarily because of the temperature in the room, but the fact that there are other issues that we need to continue to work on.

If it's an issue of more bedding required, we will send that out to get the information to authorities to ensure the issue of seniors and their comfort level is addressed as best can be.

The other issues around the facility, we will look at the history of that facility, the year it was built and where it would fall on a needs program and when the facility would come up for review. That would be our cycle in all our communities is looking at the age of a facility, when it was last renovated or a major retrofit done and go forward on that basis. So we will look up that information and work with the Member. Thank you.
