Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just want to make sure that the Minister understands why I have a concern with this. I have a concern with this because I specifically asked the Minister of Human Resources in this House if there had been any breach of any confidential information regarding GNWT employees as a result of this new software upgrade going live on the system. Of course, we know at the time, the Minister said absolutely not. I pursued it and subsequently found out that, in fact, there had been. That was conceded or agreed that it happened. Now you are telling me that there is a report that came out subsequently on that particular matter and it was not shared with the Minister of Human Resources. At the time, I questioned. People monitor this in the public service, but there are people who monitor Hansard and what we are saying here in this House. Why wouldn't the deputy minister have picked up the telephone and called the Minister of HR right away and said we do know there has been a breach of the system? I asked that question at the time. I never really did get a satisfactory answer because it was the end of session and people left. But people knew I asked the question. They knew he denied it and nobody set out on their own initiative to set the record straight. Now, here we are. There is a report that has come out about this and I believe it also includes a few other things. It talks about the implementation of this not following a GNWT model or any other software model in terms of the rollout of some of these changes. I think the same report talks about that as well. Why would that report not have been shared with the Minister of Human Resources? This looks like two incidents where something has happened under something that was within the Minister's purview and he wasn't even told about it. Now a report has come to you. It hasn't come to us. I would like to know about it. Why are we not being kept informed of these things? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
