Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I’ll be brief in my comments. Again, I mentioned this last year and I’ll mention it again this year. In the time I’ve been here, there have been a number of issues with Human Resources going back five or six years. I believe in the last three years under the guidance of the Minister and the management team in the department, as an MLA we don’t get as many calls or complaints from the public or the public service. I appreciate that. Obviously the public and the public service that you serve appreciate it as well. I think people are getting a much more fair shake when it comes to their dealings with Human Resources. I appreciate that. I’m sure they do too.
Going forward, if I could say one thing, I think, and I’ve mentioned this a number of times, I really think we need to start planning long term and doing some work with how the Aboriginal governments in the Northwest Territories are going to advance, draw down their authorities, and how it is that our public service is going to come together with the needs and requirements of Aboriginal self-governments around the Northwest Territories. We can’t afford to be stepping on one another’s toes down the road. I think the more planning and foresight we have on how that’s all going to work is going to pay dividends down the road.
Comments are brief, I know it’s late. Just a few comments. Thank you.
