Committee Motion 4-16(2) To Delete $225,000 For North Slave Correctional Centre — Aboriginal Healing And Spiritual Program Area — Justice Committee Motion Not Carried
Consideration in Committee of the Whole of Bills and Other Matters

Jackson Lafferty Monfwi

The work is still continuing. As the Member indicated, we are still at the planning stages. The design development is scheduled for March 2008. That’s in the works. Site grading, drainage and ball-field work will continue in the spring and summer of 2008. So there is work scheduled for this summer and fall. The site work is scheduled to be complete in the summer of 2008.

The Member indicated it had something to do with an announcement. No, it doesn’t. The announcement of the $135 million that he referred to…. These two projects have been on the books. We are continuing with the project. Both our department and the community have met with PWS as well, in Inuvik on January 24. We did a presentation to them on the actual current status of where we’re at.

We are making progress to move forward on this. We certainly wouldn’t want to see this project on hold. We are making progress and proceeding with it. Mahsi, Mr. Chair.
