Good afternoon,
colleagues. Welcome back to the House. Members, this week we have included an additional audio component as part of the Assembly’s new broadcasting system. To assist us, we have interpreters in the House all week. Yesterday and today we have interpretation in Chipewyan. Wednesday and Thursday we will have North Slavey interpretation and on Friday, Inuktitut.
We are rebroadcasting our proceedings throughout the Territories, and this week we’ll include the audio tracks in the three aboriginal languages translations to the communities currently receiving our feed. This is part of the preparation being made to offer our proceedings in all of our official languages to viewers across the Northwest Territories. Thank you, Members.
Item 2, Ministers’ statements. The honourable Minister responsible for Industry, Tourism and Investment, Mr. Bob McLeod.
