Thank you, Mr. Chairman. When I asked questions about the nursing positions before, which I understand has been dealt with by a motion — and I don’t want to ask you about the nursing positions — it precipitated a response from the deputy minister about the maintenance officer position at South Mackenzie Correctional Centre. The deputy minister indicated that position was the one that was targeted as an affected position. I’m looking at some follow-up to the information that was provided, and not for information related to the rest of the motion.
The maintenance position was the one that is potentially affected. The deputy minister mentioned that there are a couple of retirements coming up at the South Mackenzie Correctional Centre this summer. What’s the process for trying to ensure that that person in the maintenance officer position, who is a fully qualified corrections officer, gets connected into those positions? I mean, you get a letter; you’re an affected employee. There are these vacancies coming up. What’s the process. Does that maintenance officer, who’s been there 15 years, then apply for that? Is that something that’s done internally? How does that process work? I was wondering how we connect that employee with those vacant positions.
