Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have a question with regard to the section on corporate communications and protocol. I believe it was in the business plans that I read that the department was doing a review of the GNWT communications standards and practices. I’d like to ask the Minister, the DM, if indeed that review was done and what the results were, can we see that report, all those sorts of questions.

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Mr. Roland.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The area of communications and protocol within Cabinet was one of coming up with a process of clearly establishing our links and communications internally with departments. Right now every department has their own communications portion or function. To pull that together to have a more consistent approach to that, as well as some direct communications themselves on that. We’re still doing the work, but I would say that if I recall the discussion on this, it was more to set up a better coordinated approach in our communications process between the Executive and departments. That has started to fall in place. It goes right from, for example, Ministers’ statements coordinated to the issues that may arise in a department that can have an overall impact on government and how we would respond or support a department in those initiatives. I can ask Ms. Ballantyne to give a little more content to that.

Thank you, Mr. Roland. Ms. Ballantyne.

Thank you, Ms. Ballantyne. Ms. Bisaro.

I don’t have the paper right here where I got the info. I’ll look it up and let the Minister know. If people are still asking questions, I can come back to it.

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. I didn’t really hear a question. Mr. Roland, do you have any comments?

No, Mr. Chairman. Once we get some confirmation on this specific area we’ll be able to do that. What I would, I guess, put out now is that we will pull the work that we have done in the areas that we’ve worked. For example, some of this was an additional communications person that we have within Executive now that helps us and then there’s the internal coordinating and working group. The other thing we’ve done, for example, is our radio broadcasting working with Aboriginal languages and talking about in general our government messaging throughout a number of departments.

Thank you, Mr. Roland. Page 2-29, Executive, activity summary, Cabinet support, operations expenditure summary, $3.156 million.
