Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The Department of Human Resources works with Health and Social Services, with Stanton, on staffing. It does work in cooperation with both of them to try to ensure that graduate nurses are placed in appropriate placements across the Territories. Obviously, there has to be a balance of experience and knowledge in every one of the units. That will sometimes mean that graduates can't get their first, second or even third choices sometimes of where they would like to get some practice. So the department provides help in the staffing beforehand. The mentors are actually Human Resources staff and they are assigned to help the recent grads in their placements. That is one of the roles that HR plays, is actually providing those mentors.
