Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In follow up to Mr. Bromley’s questions from yesterday and Mr. McLeod’s announcement yesterday that he plans to form a Minister’s Advisory Panel on the Economy, I have a few questions about that.
Right now, as everyone knows, we are undertaking some pretty drastic cuts in the GNWT budget, and we are also undertaking a review of all agencies, boards and commissions, with an eye, I suppose, to streamlining and reducing the number of boards and agencies we have.
With that backdrop in mind, I would like to ask Minister Bob McLeod how much this new Minister’s Advisory Panel on the Economy is going to cost this government.
