Mr. Speaker, I have a response to written question 13-16(2), asked of the Hon. Sandy Lee, Minister of Health and Social Services, by Mr. Beaulieu on May 26, 2008, regarding Tu Nedhe residents suffering from diabetes. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Diabetes prevalence and incidence rates are not available at a community level, as diabetes is not currently a reportable condition. However, data obtained directly from the health centres indicate that ten individuals in Lutselkāe and 45 individuals in Fort Resolution receive regular diabetes follow-up.
