Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in my Member's statement I spoke of the inequities facing our apprentices employed by the GNWT. Our current pay regime doesn't recognize market forces and the rate of pay in private industry sectors. Mr. Speaker, like the situation with our nurses, the HAY plan doesn't provide the flexibility to meet the pay factor requirements to retain our journeypersons. My question is to the Minister of Human Resources. Is there a way to increase the wages for journeypersons to recognize the market forces that have or will impact the ability of the GNWT to retain qualified tradespeople? Thank you.
