Thank you, Madam Chair. Yes, the planning for the proposed female correctional centre includes long-term planning that is intended to serve long term, looking at the potential for an increased number of women and girls in custody, which of course is very likely with the new bill. So we are looking at that.
Our current arrangement with the girls at the North Slave Youth Centre is only temporary. It is good for now. It is fine for now. We have additional staff that were transferred down from Arctic Tern to look after the girls separately, but should the facility become full, then it would obviously create more difficulties. The plan for the new female facility in Fort Smith is intended to meet long-term needs.
