Committee Motion 39-16(2) That The Department Of ITI Review Its Management Structure To Bring Senior Management Positions Into Proportion With Total Positions In The Department (Committee Motion Carried)
Consideration in Committee of the Whole of Bills and Other Matters
David Ramsay Kam Lake
I move that this committee strongly
recommends that the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment review its management structure to bring the number of senior management positions into proportion with the total number of positions within the department;
and further, that the department include its analysis and any necessary structural changes within its departmental business plan to be considered in the fall of 2008.

David Ramsay Kam Lake
Yes. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I
mentioned yesterday — I believe it was yesterday in my statement — that the Department of ITI seems somewhat top-heavy. There are 21 managers in that department.
If we are in times of reductions and looking at reduction exercises, the committee feels that we should be taking a look at the management structure and not just in ITI. ITI is, arguably, the worst offender, but we’ve got to bring management in line with the people that they’re there to supervise and oversee and the functions they serve. I think we need to be always looking at that, to try to do more with what we’ve got. Like I said, 21 senior management positions in a department the size of ITI is just too many. We’d like to see some movement in that direction in the business plans in the fall.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I
also have a motion.
I move that this committee strongly recommends that the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment review its organizational structure to ensure that all opportunities for decentralization of the department’s functions and personnel into the regions are maximized;
and further, that the department include its analysis and necessary decentralization initiatives within its departmental business plan to be considered in the fall of 2008.

Jane Groenewegen Hay River South
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
The motion is pretty well self-explanatory. We’re looking at the structure of the Department of ITI. Mr. Ramsay’s motion, which was just voted on, speaks to the fact that there are a lot of positions in the upper management of this department. It is good, from time to time, to look at any functions that can be decentralized to the regions. A number of the regions are being negatively impacted by these potential job reductions in the communities. We just believe that ITI is a department that could potentially look at further opportunities. That is the reason for this motion.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have a
motion.
I move that this committee strongly recommends that the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment take immediate action to develop a strategy to increase aboriginal employment in management positions and across the department;
and further, that the department include the strategy within its departmental business plans to be considered in the fall of 2008.

Glen Abernethy Great Slave
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I’m going to
be really brief. This is similar to the motion we raised yesterday. Although ITI does have a fairly decent aboriginal representation at the lower levels within the department, it is still low in the senior management and management-level positions. We would like to see this department take the lead and increase their aboriginal representation at the senior and management levels.
